Combined tubal and multiple intrauterine pregnancies following ovulation induction.

An infertile woman who conceived after human menopasual gonadotropin-induced ovulation experienced ovarian hyperstimulation and a quintuplet gestation--an ectopic and a quadruplet intrauterine pregnancy. The intrauterine pregnancy was confirmed by B-scan ultrasonography about the time that the tubal pregnancy was ruptured. Salpingectomy did not interfere with the intrauterine pregnancy, but in spite of a cervical cerclage the patient developed premature labor after about 26 weeks of gestation.
