    Abstract:
    The authors describe a rare case of bilateral tubal pregnancy after IVF. The patient is with secondary infertility. The preceding diagnostic laparoscopy excluded the presence of tubal factor. The results of the spermogram show average to severe form of Oligoasthenozoospermia. Short protocol with GnRH-antagonist was performed and two embryos were transferred on the third day. On the 36th day after the embryo transfer the patient was hospitalized with abdominal pain in the right hypogastric region, clinical and ultrasound indications for hemoperitoneum. Urgent laparotomy was performed followed by salpingectomy dextra due to hemoperitoneum caused by tubal abortion. The examination of the left adnexa reveals uruptured tubal pregnancy in the isthmic part of the tube and the decision for salpingectomy sinistra was taken. Histological examinations confirmed the diagnosis of ectopic pregnancy in both tubes. The frequency of some rare forms and localizations of ectopic as well as heterotopic pregnancies increase after ART.
