Two different subsets of patients can be distinguished: women presenting with the disease as a result of spontaneous conception and those with the condition after undergoing assisted reproduction procedures. This article reviews and analyzes 42 cases of bilateral ectopic pregnancies reported in the last 10 years, proposes a new classification of the disease, and presents some data that should be useful for the clinician who confronts this difficult entity.
