Ovarian Pregnancy after Bilateral Salpingectomy: A Case Report

doi:10.12280/gjszjk.20240403

Abstract

Abstract:

A case of right ovarian pregnancy was reported. In this case, the patient with a history of bilateral salpingectomy underwent the treatment of assisted reproductive technology. On the 20th day of embryo transfer, an ectopic pregnancy mass in the right ovary was found by transvaginal ultrasound. The laparoscopic surgery was performed in time to remove the ovarian pregnancy tissue and to repair the ovary. The level of β-human chorionic gonadotropin (β-hCG) was decreased satisfactorily after surgery. The diagnosis and treatment process, risk factors and mechanism of ovarian pregnancy were analyzed. Ovarian pregnancy can be an unexpected complication after bilateral salpingectomy in assisted reproductive technology. For the patients undergone bilateral salpingectomy, especially in those patients with multiple embryo transfer, early diagnosis of ovarian pregnancy can be achieved through β-hCG and transvaginal ultrasound, so as to maximize the protection of patients′ fertility.
