Abstract

A 30-year-old nulliparous woman was referred with suspected left ovarian ectopic pregnancy. She had undergone laparoscopic left salpingectomy for ruptured tubal ectopic pregnancy 3 weeks earlier, following treatment with medications for ovulation induction. Sonological examination revealed a left ovarian ectopic pregnancy corresponding to 8 0/7 weeks with cardiac activity. She underwent ultrasound-guided intrasac therapy with intrasac instillation of 3 mEq of potassium chloride followed by 50 mg of methotrexate. She was followed with weekly measurements of serum beta human Chorionic Gonadotropin (hCG) which returned to baseline after 65 days of the intrasac therapy. This case not only highlights the need for continued follow-up of the serum beta hCG after definitive management of an ectopic pregnancy in cases with multiple ovulations, but also the option of medical management in cases of advanced ovarian ectopic pregnancy. It also accentuates the necessity for adequate counselling to avoid conception in a multiple ovulation cycle.
