Abstract:
Twin ectopic pregnancy is an uncommon event, usually occurring as simultaneous intrauterine and tubal gestations. Interstitial implantation of an ectopic pregnancy is also a rare event, associated with a high mortality rate. Twin interstitial pregnancy has been previously reported only three times in the English literature. We report a recent case of unilateral twin interstitial ectopic pregnancy that resulted in maternal death and review the literature with regard to both ectopic pregnancy and factors associated with mortality from interstitial implantation.
