Abstract

Heterotopic pregnancy is the simultaneous occurrence of an intrauterine pregnancy (IUP) and an extrauterine pregnancy. It is an extremely rare condition, with an estimated incidence of 1 in 30,000 pregnancies. Despite its rarity, the presence of a confirmed IUP does not exclude the possibility of a concurrent extrauterine pregnancy. The clinical presentation typically includes abdominal pain, vaginal bleeding, and an adnexal mass alongside an intrauterine pregnancy. A ruptured ectopic pregnancy is a critical condition requiring urgent diagnosis and intervention due to the risk of intra-abdominal bleeding and hemorrhagic shock. In such cases, the ectopic gestational sac should be surgically removed, either via laparotomy or laparoscopy.

SPONTAN HETEROTOPİK GEBELİK OLGU SUNUMU VE LİTERATÜRÜN GÖZDEN GEÇİRİLMESİ

Abstract

Heterotopik gebelik, intrauterin gebelik (IUG) ile ekstrauterin gebeliğin eşzamanlı olarak meydana gelmesidir. Oldukça nadir görülen bir durumdur ve tahmini insidansı 30.000 gebelikte 1’dir. Nadir görülmesine rağmen, doğrulanmış bir intrauterin gebeliğin varlığı, eşzamanlı bir ekstrauterin gebelik olasılığını dışlamaz. Klinik tablo genellikle intrauterin gebeliğe eşlik eden karın ağrısı, vajinal kanama ve adneksiyal kitleyi içerir. Rüptüre ektopik gebelik, intraabdominal kanama ve hemorajik şok riski nedeniyle acil tanı ve müdahale gerektiren kritik bir durumdur. Bu gibi vakalarda, ektopik gestasyonel kese cerrahi olarak çıkarılmalıdır; bu işlem laparotomi veya laparoskopi yoluyla gerçekleştirilebilir.
