Heterotopic pregnancy is one of the rarest forms of ectopic pregnancy, in which one embryo is implanted in the uterine cavity (physiological localization) and the other embryo is implanted outside the uterine cavity (ectopic localization). This article discusses a heterotopic pregnancy in the right corner of the uterus with a violation of the integrity of the uterine wall, the development of the accompanying hemoperitoneum and hemorrhagic shock, against the background of which the pregnancy in the uterine cavity progressed and ended with a successful cesarean section at 34 2/7 weeks. It should be noted that 4 days before uterine rupture, the patient had clinical symptoms characteristic of Covid-19, which was also confirmed by a rapid antigen test against Covid-19.
