We report a case of a twin pregnancy at term obtained after five multiple embryo transfers in a patient who presented diethylstilbestrol (DES)-associated cervical and uterine structural abnormalities, a septate uterus and bilateral tuberculous salpingitis. The suitability of in-vitro fertiliza tion/embryo transfer in DES-exposed women is discussed.

Key words: DES/genital tuberculosis/septate uterus/IVF/pregnancy
