Twin ectopic pregnancies are rare and preoperative diagnosis extremely so. The risk factors and clinical presentation for twin ectopic pregnancies are the same as for ectopic pregnancies in general. The nature of twin ectopic pregnancies, however, implies a potential for higher complication rates. Majority of cases are diagnosed and thus managed surgically; however, successful medical management has been documented with preoperative ultrasound diagnosis.</p><p><strong>Case presentation: </strong>A nulliparous patient presented at six weeks gestation with abdominal pain and vaginal bleeding. An ultrasound diagnosis of right tubal twin ectopic pregnancy was made. She was initially commenced on medical management, but this was abandoned due to worsening symptoms. She subsequently had a laparoscopic right salpingectomy, which was uncomplicated.</p><p><strong>Discussion: </strong>The case presented was one of unilateral twin tubal ectopic pregnancy, which is a rare occurrence.

There are no formal diagnostic criteria to assist with the diagnosis of pelvic congestion syndrome despite affecting such a large proportion of the population. Furthermore, the aetiology and anatomy of pelvic congestion syndrome has significant overlap with the causal factors of varicoceles in men, many of whom also experience chronic pain/aching.
