Plain language summary Infertility is a common reproductive system problem; modern science has promoted assisted reproduction techniques as an alternative for these cases. High-order pregnancies it is estimated to occur in 90% of the cases due to assisted reproductive techniques, which often lead to numerous complications. A 33-year-old woman, who desired pregnancy, but had a history of infertility underwent artificial insemination, conceiving successfully quadruplets without any perinatal or maternal complications. Knowledge of maternal history and proper management of assisted reproductive techniques in addition to adequate prenatal follow-up are necessary for a successful pregnancy.
