  • Title: [Pregnancy following bilateral salpingectomy].
    Author: Bang A.
    Journal: Ugeskr Laeger; 2008 Apr 21; 170(17):1437-8. PubMed ID: 18462619.
    Abstract:
    This report presents a rare case of spontaneous pregnancy following bilateral salpingectomy. A woman with a history of bilateral salpingectomy was admitted to hospital because of abdominal pain and positive urine HCG. Surprisingly, ultrasound confirmed a live intrauterine fetus. The pregnancy was unwanted, and the woman decided to terminate the pregnancy. She was offered diagnostic examination to localise a potential fistula, but she declined. In a MEDLINE search of English literature this is only the second case of spontaneous pregnancy following bilateral salpingectomy.
