We encountered a rare case of combined intrauterine and extrauterine pregnancy that occurred following separate spontaneous ovulations. A 33 year old woman visited our hospital with the chief complaint of abdominal pain on April 16, 1993. Her last menstruation was from March 23 for 6 days. However, the urinary human chorionic gonadotrophin (HCG) on April 19 was 1024 IU/l. Pelvic examination and ultrasonography indicated an extrauterine pregnancy, which was confirmed by laparotomy and histological identification of trophoblast cells. The urinary HCG concentration markedly decreased after the operation. However, the HCG level increased again on the fifth post-operative day, and a gestational sac (11 mm) was identified in the uterine cavity on the 11th post-operative day, indicating that this intrauterine pregnancy was established following spontaneous ovulation which occurred before the removal of the extrauterine pregnancy. This case indicates that a combined pregnancy can occur not only after simultaneous multiple ovulations but also after the separate spontaneous ovulations.
