Heterotopic pregnancy(HP) occurs when intrauterine and ectopic pregnancies coexist. We report a case of HP at 14 wk of gestation presenting as ruptured left rudimentary horn ectopic pregnancy with live intrauterine gestation and was managed with emergency laparotomy followed by resection of left rudimentary non communicating horn of uterus. The intrauterine pregnancy continued uneventfully. A female baby was delivered vaginally at 41 wk following induction of labour.

A 23-year-old woman, conceived by ovulation induction presented at 10 weeks amenorrhea with abdominal pain and a positive urinary Beta HCG. 2D ultrasound suggested a right-sided ectopic pregnancy. On 3D ultrasound imaging, an unicornuate uterus with a right rudimentary horn pregnancy of size 6 cm was diagnosed [Figure 1].

Article Synopsis
- - A 4-year-old patient had a successful procedure involving aortic valve repair, septal myectomy, and enlargement of the ascending aorta due to severe stenosis.
- - The aortic valve was bicuspid with a fused left-right commissure and an underdeveloped right coronary leaflet.
- - The case illustrates effective surgical intervention for this complex cardiac condition, leading to a positive outcome.
Predictors of Residual Right to Left Shunt in Patients Undergoing Percutaneous Transcatheter Patent Foramen Ovale Closure: A New Clue "Inferior Vena Cava-Patent Foramen Ovale Angle".

Department of Cardiology, Basaksehir Cam and Sakura City Hospital, 34480 Istanbul, Türkiye.
Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the relationship between residual right-to-left shunt (RLS) after percutaneous patent foramen ovale (PFO) closure and specific PFO structural features identified via transoesophageal echocardiography (TEE).
- Out of 123 patients screened for PFO closure due to cryptogenic stroke, 103 were successfully treated, with 21% showing significant residual RLS within an 18-month follow-up period.
- The research finds that certain anatomical characteristics, like aortic rim and IVC-PFO tunnel angle, are significantly associated with the presence of residual RLS, suggesting the IVC-PFO tunnel angle as a useful indicator for predicting RLS after PFO closure.

Rudimentary uterine horn pregnancy is rare, with a reported incidence of 1 in 76,000 to 1 in 150,000. This report aims to advance knowledge regarding this rare condition, importance of MRI imaging in characterizing congenital uterine anomalies and the feasibility of a total laparoscopic management approach. A 26 year old female presented with new onset abdominal pain at 6 weeks gestation.
