  METHODS
  The collection of 1487 pregnancies arisen after IVF/ET cycles accomplished in the period of 1988-2006 in the Center of Assisted Reproduction CAR 01 Brno, in which the prevalence and the therapy of extrauterine and heterotopic pregnancies was observed. Also the therapeutic procedures of ectopic pregnancies and developement of heterotopic pregnancies were analysed.
  
  
  RESULTS
  In the follow-up file the numbers of ectopic pregnancies was 84 from 1487 (5.65%) clinical pregnancies. Heterotopic pregnancy occured in seven cases (0.47%). Both ectopic and heterotopic pregnancy rate is higher than in a common population. From the seven heterotopic pregnancies two resulted in the delivery of the intrauterine pregnancy. From the total number of 84 ectopic pregnancies 68 (88.10%) resulted in laparoscpic salpingectomy as the therapy, only nine of them (11.90%) were treated conservatively with the tube preservation.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Evaluation of the ectopic and heterotopic rate prevalence after assisted conception treatment in the Centre of Assisted Reproduction CAR 01 Brno in the period of 1988 - 2006 shows higher appearance of these complications in pregnancies, which origin is in IVF and ET as an infertility treatment.
