A case report describes a tubal pregnancy located distal to an ampullary leiomyoma, suggesting that tubal myomas may predispose patients to tubal implantation of a conceptus.

Abstract

BACKGROUND: Fewer than 100 cases of leiomyoma of the fallopian tube have been described in the literature; most of them are asymptomatic. CASE: A woman presented with a tubal pregnancy which, at laparotomy, proved to be distal to a leiomyoma of the tube. CONCLUSION: Tubal myomas may predispose to tubal implantation of a conceptus. To our knowledge, this is the first time a tubal leiomyoma and a tubal pregnancy have been reported in the English literature.
