A case report of heterochronic presentation of a bilateral tubal pregnancy

Abstract

Key Clinical Message This paper highlights that diagnosis and treatment of one ectopic pregnancy does not rule out the happening of a second ectopic pregnancy in the same patient concurrently, especially if the patient has rising β‐hCG and persistent symptoms. Abstract Bilateral tubal pregnancy (BTP) is the most uncommon form of tubal ectopic pregnancy. Complications can lead to maternal morbidity and mortality. We reported a case of left tubal pregnancy and the patient underwent laparoscopic salpingostomy. During the follow‐up, the contralateral ectopic pregnancy was discovered and treated with MTX.
