Case Reports
An unexpected spontaneous triplet heterotopic pregnancy
Saudi Med J.
2005 Jan.
Abstract
A heterotopic pregnancy is the coexistence of one or more ectopic pregnancies and a single or multiple eutopic pregnancies. This potentially fatal condition rarely occurs in spontaneous conception cycles. We report a case of spontaneous triplet heterotopic pregnancy in a multigravida with no known risk factors. Ultrasound imaging was the diagnostic tool used and left salpingectomy via laparotomy was performed in this case report.
