Abstract

Unilateral Viable Twin Monochorionic Pregnancy: A Case Report

Viquar Qureshi*, Ayah Hijazi

An ectopic pregnancy occurs due to failure of migration of the fertilized ovum to the uterine cavity. Ectopic pregnancies are most commonly seen in the fallopian tube (about 94%), with 3% in the ovaries and the rest in the abdominal cavity, cervix or uterine cornua. Unilateral twin ectopic pregnancy is rare, occurring in 1 in 200 ectopic pregnancies and in 1 in 20,000 pregnancies. Only about 5-10% of ectopic pregnancies are live, and thus the incidence of a live tubal twin ectopic pregnancy is about 1 in 125,000 pregnancies
