We report a case of cul-de-sac pregnancy following in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer (IVF-ET) in a patient with primary infertility.
A 33-year-old primigravida woman underwent IVF-ET 4 weeks before her presentation. Serum beta-human chorionic gonadotropin (beta-hCG) on day 20 after embryo transfer was 901 mIU/mL. Ultrasound examination on day 30 after embryo transfer revealed an ectopic gestational sac with fetal heart beat in the left adnexa, without any evidence of intrauterine pregnancy. Laparoscopy was performed and revealed an ectopic mass in the congenital blind pouch that was connected to the posterior cul-de-sac. The gestational tissue was removed by forceps, and electrocauterization was used for hemostasis under laparotomy. Serum beta-hCG fell to 7 mIU/mL after surgery.
Serum beta-hCG combined with ultrasound scanning enables early diagnosis of ectopic pregnancy.
我们报告一例原发性不孕症患者在体外受精-胚胎移植(IVF-ET)后发生子宫直肠陷凹妊娠的病例。
一名33岁初产妇在就诊前4周接受了IVF-ET。胚胎移植后第20天血清β-人绒毛膜促性腺激素(β-hCG)为901 mIU/mL。胚胎移植后第30天超声检查显示左侧附件有一个有胎心搏动的异位妊娠囊,未发现宫内妊娠迹象。进行了腹腔镜检查,发现先天性盲袋中有一个异位包块,与子宫直肠陷凹相连。通过镊子取出妊娠组织,并在剖腹手术下用电灼止血。术后血清β-hCG降至7 mIU/mL。
血清β-hCG联合超声扫描能够早期诊断异位妊娠。
