BACKGROUND: Heterotopic pregnancy describes the relatively rare coexistence of one or more intrauterine gestations and one or more extrauterine (ectopic) gestations. We describe a unique clinical case involving successful treatment of an ovarian heterotopic pregnancy through gestational sac aspiration and injection of hyperosmolar glucose. CASE: A 31-year-old woman presented with an ovarian ectopic pregnancy and a viable intrauterine pregnancy after ovulation induction with oral medications. The ovarian gestational sac was aspirated and then injected transvaginally with a small volume of 50% glucose in water. The ectopic pregnancy resolved, and the intrauterine pregnancy was delivered at term without complication. CONCLUSION: Gestational sac aspiration and injection of hyperosmolar glucose into an ovarian ectopic pregnancy was simple and efficacious without compromising a coexisting intrauterine pregnancy. |
