Abstract:Heterotopic pregnancy is an uncommon phenomenon in which an ectopic and intrauterine pregnancy coexist. This condition can be life-threatening and poses a significant therapeutic challenge. Here we describe management of a heterotopic pregnancy with the ectopic pregnancy located in the right cornua. Resection of the ectopic pregnancy was performed via open laparotomy with intraoperative sonography. A sonography guided approach may optimize resection depth while secondarily allowing monitoring of the intrauteri… Show more
