Abstract
AbstractBackgroundConcurrent ectopic pregnancies in differing anatomical locations are a rarity. It is imperative to be able to identify these cases as extrauterine pregnancies require emergent evaluation and treatment.CaseWe describe a case of suspected ruptured ectopic pregnancy in a low‐risk multiparous female found to have ipsilateral ovarian and tubal ectopic pregnancies on laparoscopy and subsequent pathology.ConclusionAlthough the co‐occurrence of these pregnancies presented as a diagnostic challenge, preoperative ultrasound imaging increased our suspicion in conjunction with laparoscopic findings. Thorough examination of the uterus and bilateral adnexa during laparoscopy is essential in identifying pathology and reducing morbidity. Furthermore, sampling or removal of suspicious concomitant lesions may aid in diagnosis. Following beta HCG trends may provide additional information in patients with unclear findings on laparoscopy.
