摘要:	BACKGROUND: Intramural pregnancy is the rarest form of ectopic pregnancy. The diagnosis depends upon the sonographic finding of intramural gestational sac-like growth and persistent high beta-human chorionic gonadotropin (beta-hCG) levels after dilatation and curettage. No authors mentioned negative beta-hCG result in such situation. Rarely has the literature contained preoperative sonograms and photographs of postoperative gestational tissue. CASE: A 31-year-old woman presented with vaginal spotting for five months. Six months earlier she underwent dilatation and curettage for blighted ovum at 8 weeks' gestation. Since then, incidental vaginal spotting was noted. Sonography demonstrated all intramural cyst with fetal pole-like growth. Serum beta-hCG, diagnostic dilatation and curettage, and hysteroscopic examination were negative. Laparotomy for excision of the cyst confirmed an intramural pregnancy. CONCLUSION: Because of the long period after fetal wastage, negative serum beta-hCG was noted in this case. Negative serum beta-hCG was unreliable in the exclusion of intramural pregnancy. With the sonographic appearance of intramural gestational sac-like growth, in spite of a negative serum beta-hCG the clinician should be alert to the possibility of intramural pregnancy.
