  Case report.
  
  
  METHODS
  Tertiary academic IVF program.
  
  
  METHODS
  A 35-year-old woman who conceived from IVF-ET treatment at 5.5 weeks of gestation.
  
  
  METHODS
  Transvaginal ultrasound-guided aspiration of the cervical pregnancy followed by cervical-stay sutures to control hemorrhage after aspiration.
