Sumario:Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) caused by the novel severe respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is a pandemic and potentially fatal disease. COVID-19 cases are on the rise globally; this also includes risk groups such as pregnant women and neonates. Herein, we report the first COVID-19 cesarean delivery case of an in vitro fertilization (IVF) pregnancy in a Saudi woman. A postdate pregnant healthy woman tested positive with COVID-19 on her 38 weeks + five days. On her 40 weeks + five days, the woman had dilation without contractions; thereby, cesarean delivery was decided. The delivery was successful, with no complications in the mother and neonate. The preferable outcomes of this case could be attributable to some factors: multidisciplinary medical management, the mother’s young age, and COVID-19 infection during the late trimester.
