Heterotopic Quadruplet Pregnancy After ICSI Conception.

Background: Heterotopic pregnancy (HP) is a condition characterized by the coexistence of multiple fetuses at two or more implantation sites. It occurs in 1% of pregnancies after assisted reproductive techniques (ART). Presence of triplet intrauterine pregnancy with ectopic gestational sac is one of the rarest forms of HP. Ectopic pregnancy is implanted in the ampullary segment of the fallopian tube in 80% of cases. Most of the patients present with acute abdominal symptoms due to rupture of the tube.

Case Presentation: This article reports a case of quadruplet heterotopic pregnancy after intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) with an ampullary ectopic pregnancy and intrauterine triplet pregnancies. The ruptured ampullary pregnancy was emergently managed by right salpingectomy. This was followed by embryo reduction at 12 + 6 weeks and successful outcome of intrauterine twin pregnancy.
