Abstract

Ectopic pregnancy is associated with maternal morbidity and mortality during early pregnancy. Ectopic pregnancy occurs in approximately 2% of all pregnancies, and the risk of ectopic pregnancy is increased by eight-fold in women with a history of ectopic pregnancy. However, recurrent ectopic pregnancy after ipsilateral partial salpingectomy is quite rare. The authors experienced a case of recurrent ectopic pregnancy in the distal remnant after right partial salpingectomy. In this case report, they discuss this unusual case and provide a brief review of the literature.
