Abstract A patient is reported, who suffered from ovarian abscess after ovarian puncture of a functional ovarian cyst. The cyst has developed after administration of a GnRH agonist depot preparation in the preceeding luteal phase. She was planned to be stimulated for IVF according to the long luteal protocol. The abscess was removed by laparoscopy, and stimulation started two months later after administration of two further GnRH against depot preparations. The patient got pregnant after embryo transfer of three embryos, and a heterotopic triplet pregnancy, with intrauterine twins and a tubal singleton was established. Bilateral salpingectomy was performed, because of bilateral haematosalpinx and previously described bilateral tubal occlusion. The further pregnancy was uncomplicated.
