We present an heterotopic pregnancy at 16 weeks of gestation following IVF/ET treatment with the ectopic pregnancy located in the left fallopian tube. Intra-abdominal bleeding secondary to an heterotopic pregnancy, causing acute abdominal pain and hemorrhagic shock, should be included in the differential diagnosis even in the second trimester of pregnancy, especially in patients, achieving conception with the use of assisted reproduction techniques.

Adenomyosis is a common gynecological disorder characterized by the presence of endometrial glands and stroma deep within the myometrium associated with myometrial hypertrophy and hyperplasia. Focal uterine infarction after IVF-ET in a patient with adenomyosis following biochemical pregnancy has not been previously reported, although it occurs after uterine artery embolization in order to control symptoms caused by fibroids or adenomyosis. We report a case of a nulliparous woman who had uterine adenomyosis presenting with fever, pelvic pain and biochemical abortion after undergoing an IVF-ET procedure and the detection of a slightly elevated serum hCG. Focal uterine infarction was suspected after a pelvic magnetic resonance imaging demonstrated preserved myometrium between the endometrial cavity and inner margin of the necrotic myometrium. This case demonstrates that focal uterine infarction should be considered in the differential diagnosis of acute abdominal pain, vaginal bleeding and infectious signs in women experiencing biochemical abortion after an IVF-ET procedure.
