| چکیده انگلیسی مقاله |
Objective: Triplet or higher-order multiple pregnancies are often caused due to ovulation induction. Spontaneous quadruplet pregnancy is a rare phenomenon which is associated with maternal and fetal complications. Here in, we report a spontaneous quadruplet pregnancy with no family history and as a result of an unwanted pregnancy. Case report: The patient was a 34-year-old, G4 L2 Ab1. She noticed being pregnant during breastfeeding, a spontaneous quadruplet pregnancy. There was no case of multiple pregnancies in her or her husband's family. In week 29 she was hospitalized due to the diagnosis of preterm labour. At 32 weeks and 4 days of gestation, because of the restart of labour contractions and dilatation development, she underwent a cesarean section. The outcome was the birth of 4 healthy neonates weighing between 1800 to 2100 gram and normal Apgar score. Conclusion: Quadruplet pregnancy can rarely occur spontaneously even unintentionally, and can reach the third trimester without prophylactic cerclage. |
