Abdominal pregnancy on the bladder wall following embryo transfer with cryopreserved-thawed embryos: a case report
1Department on Obstetrics and Gynecology, Hahnemann University Hospital, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA.
Objective:
To describe the occurrence and management of an abdominal pregnancy of the bladder after ET with cryopreserved-thawed embryos.
Design:
Case report.
Setting:
Infertility program in a tertiary care hospital.
Patient(S):
A woman with secondary infertility and a history of breast cancer.
Intervention(S):
Transfer of cryopreserved-thawed embryos was performed, serial serum hormonal measurements were obtained, methotrexate was given IM, operative laparoscopy was performed.
Main Outcome Measure(S):
Documentation of abdominal pregnancy after transfer of cryopreserved-thawed embryos and its successful laparoscopic management.
Result(S):
Abdominal pregnancy occurred after ET of cryopreserved embryos in a patient with mild tubal disease. Diagnosis and management using laparoscopy were achieved.
Conclusion(S):
Abdominal pregnancy can occur using ET of cryopreserved-thawed embryos in a patient with mild tubal disease. If anatomically accessible, such a pregnancy can be managed successfully laparoscopically.
