Abstract: One case of ectopic twin pregnancy in right fallopian tube after in vitro fertilization embryo transfer (IVF-ET) was admitted in our hospital.The development was in synchrony and the mainly manifestation was vaginal bleeding after menopause and abdominal pain.After surgery,the patient recovered well.Six cases reported in domestic literature occurred after assisted reproductive technology,including 4 cases after IVF-ET and 2 cases after artificial insemination.Two cases developed synchronously with the main manifestation of menopausal vaginal bleeding and recovered well after treatment.In 4 cases of non-synchronous embryos,after medical or surgical treatment irregular vaginal bleeding occurred,adnexal mass on the other side was found by gynecological ultrasound and blood hCG level increased significantly.Three cases recovered well after drug and/or surgical treatment and 1 case lost follow-up.
