Sumario:The simultaneous occurrence of intrauterine (IU) and extrauterine pregnancies is known as heterotopic pregnancy, an uncommon clinical condition that is challenging to manage. It can be a potentially fatal illness if it remains unnoticed. This is a case report of a woman who had heterotopic triplets after transferring two embryos produced through in vitro fertilization. An ultrasound scan diagnosed live interstitial heterotopic pregnancy and an intrauterine monochorionic twin pregnancy. Laparoscopic resection of interstitial heterotopic pregnancy was done. The monochorionic twin pregnancy was closely monitored by serial ultrasound, and at 36 weeks of gestation, two healthy twins were delivered by cesarean section. The fetal growth parameters were monitored, and a dopplers study was conducted to assess fetal blood flow. Even in heterotopic pregnancy, timely diagnosis and therapeutic intervention can preserve IU pregnancy with a successful outcome. Early meticulous monitoring and early detection can lead to a favorable outcome. Even in heterotropic pregnancy, a meticulous evaluation can lead to favorable outcomes by conserving IU pregnancy, and timely intervention can prevent maternal motility.
