Ectopic pregnancy is one of the leading causes of maternal morbidity and mortality worldwide, as seen in 9 to 13% and up to 30% of maternal deaths in developed and developing countries, respectively. Bilateral tubal pregnancy is an exceedingly rare condition with an even greater risk of rupture and hemorrhage than that of the unilateral type. This is a case of a 32 yearold G4P3 (4004) who presented with amenorrhea of 5 weeks, vaginal bleeding, and abdominal pain. The triad of symptoms, elevated serum β-HCG levels, along with a transvaginal ultrasound finding of a right adnexal mass led to the impression of a ruptured ectopic pregnancy, probably tubal. Patient underwent laparoscopy and intraoperative findings revealed bilateral tubal pregnancy for which bilateral salpingectomy was done. Oftentimes, as in this case, bilateral tubal pregnancy is diagnosed intraoperatively. However, it is possible, as seen in a review of cases, that a combination of history, symptoms, and clinical findings may point to a probable diagnosis which is imperative in treatment planning. Bilateral tubal pregnancy is rare, but due to a rise in pelvic inflammatory disease, its consequences, and the advent of assisted reproductive techniques, the risk for this condition increases with important clinical implications.
