Left ectopic pregnancy following gamete intra-Fallopian transfer into the right Fallopian tube: a report on two cases

Abstract

Two cases are reported in which GIFT was performed into the right Fallopian tube, both resulting in ectopic pregnancy in the left Fallopian tube. The possible aetiological factors for the occurrence of contralateral ectopic pregnancy are discussed.

Laparoscopic treatment of ectopic pregnancy resulting from intrauterine transmigration

“…Thus the likelihood was that fertilisation took place in the right uterine tube and subsequently the zygote migrated to the uterine cavity and eventually to the left tubal remnant. This possibility has already been demonstrated during gamete intrafallopian transfer and ovarian hyperstimulation 8 . The interesting feature of the ectopic pregnancy described here is that it occurred during a spontaneous pregnancy without any assisted reproduction technique.…”
