Abstract

The incidence of bilateral tubal ectopic pregnancies is reported to range from 1/725 to 1/1,580 extrauterine pregnancies. We report a case of bilateral ectopic pregnancies in a patient who had previously undergone bilateral partial salpingectomies for contraception. An extensive literature review identified one patient with a similar sterilization history in whom a bilateral ectopic pregnancy occurred.
