Its incidence is rising mostly due to induction of ovulation or Assisted Reproductive Technique. Most ectopic in heterotopic pregnancies are localized in the fallopian tubes. The occurrence of molar tubal ectopic pregnancy coexisting with intrauterine pregnancy is uncommon and consequently not often considered a diagnostic possibility. Case Report: We report the case of a 25-year-old woman, gravida 4 para 1, who complained of vaginal spotting and lower abdominal pain after 6 weeks of amenorrhea following clomiphene citrate ovarian stimulation. Transvaginal Ultrasonography revealed an intrauterine pregnancy and an unruptured left tubal ectopic pregnancy. She underwent successful laparoscopic salpingectomy while the intra-uterine pregnancy was allowed to continue. The ectopic pregnancy tissue histology reported an ectopic partial molar pregnancy. She subsequently had a normal vaginal delivery at 39 weeks and 3 days and her follow-up was uneventful. Conclusion: Heterotopic pregnancy is a rare but life-threatening condition. It should be suspected in a pregnant woman with a risk factor of multiple gestations who presents vaginal bleeding and lower abdominal pain in the context of early pregnancy. Laparoscopic surgery is effective for confirming the diagnosis and treating the ectopic component. Routine histological examination of tubal specimens must be taken very seriously because some findings like molar pregnancies may require specific management.展开更多

The frequency of the molar ectopic pregnancy is difficult to assess. Besides, the histopathological examination of surgical specimen of the salpingectomy is not usual in our setting. For the management, we realized a total left salpingectomy with a histopathological examination of surgical specimens in association with serum b HCG follow up. During post operations period, the patient was put on estro-progestin contraception for a year, a regular checkup of the biological marker of the molar pregnancy till negativation, a clinical, ultrasound and radiological checkup. No anomaly was noticed at the end of the follow up.展开更多

A ...Pregnancies in the same side tube after the same side ovary ovulation are more common. We report an unusual case of contralateral tubal ectopic pregnancy after ovulation of another side ovary in spontaneous cycles. A 32-year-old woman underwent laparoscopic left fallopian tube conservative surgery because of left tubal pregnancy two years ago. She returned to our hospital with a positive pregnancy test and lower abdominal pain 28 d after the dominant follicle discharged in the right side ovary detected by transvaginal ultrasound in spontaneous cycles. Transvaginal ultrasonography revealed no intrauterine gestational sac but a left adnexal mass measuring 2.6 cm X2.5 cm. Videolaparoscopy was performed, and the diagnosis of an ectopic pregnancy in the let fallopian tube was confirmed by pathologic report. Tubal damage is the most important risk factor for tubal ectopic pregnancy. Embryos can be reversely migrated toward fallopian tubes, due to retrograde action of endometrial waves and uterine contractions, that is another necessary reason which contributes to such tubal pregnancy. Total salpingectomy or tubal sterilization is necessary for avoiding repeated tubal ectopic pregnancy.展开更多

Once the condition of EP is delayed, it may lead to massive hemorrhage, shock, and even death in a short time, seriously threatening the patient’s life. Early diagnosis is the key to preventing and improving the prognosis of EP.Transabdominal ultrasound(TAS) and transvaginal ultrasound(TVS) are the main diagnostic methods for abdominal diseases. The purpose of this study is to explore the application value and effect of TAS and TVS in the diagnosis of EP,hoping to provide more valuable references for the diagnosis of EP.AIM To explore the application value of TAS and TVS in the diagnosis of EP and to improve the level of clinical diagnosis.METHODS A total of 140 patients with EP admitted to our hospital from July 2018 to July 2020 were selected for this study. All patients were divided into two groups according to the examination methods. 63 patients who underwent abdominal ultrasound examination were set as the TAS group, while 77 patients who underwent TVS examination were set as the TVS group. We compared the diagnostic accuracy and misdiagnosis rates between the two types of ultrasound examinations, as well as the postoperative pathological results of the two diagnostic methods for different types of ectopic pregnancies. We also analyzed the sonograms for the presence of mixed ectopic masses,adnexal masses, ectopic gestational sacs, the presence or absence of visible embryo and fetal heart in the ectopic sac shadow, and the detection of fluid in the rectal fossa of the uterus, such as the adnexal area, yolk sac, and embryo, etc. In addition, the diagnosis time, days of gestational sac appearance, operation time, endometrial thickness, and blood flow resistance index were compared as well.RESULTS After performing both types of ultrasound examinations in 140 patients with EP, we found that the diagnostic accuracy of TVS was significantly higher than that of TAS, and the misdiagnosis rate was significantly lower than that of TAS. The differences were statistically significant(P < 0.05). In addition, the detection rate of TVS was better than that of TAS for the presence of mixed masses,adnexal masses, ectopic gestational sacs, the presence or absence of visible embryo and fetal heart in the shadow of the ectopic sac, and sonograms such as the adnexal area, yolk sac, and embryo,etc. The coincidence rate of its postoperative pathological examination results was significantly higher than those of TAS. The diagnosis time and the days of gestational sac appearance by TVS were significantly shorter than that by TAS, and the operation time was earlier than that by TAS.What’s more, the detection rates of the endometrial thickness ￡ 1.5 mm and blood flow resistance ￡0.5 were significantly higher in TVS diagnosis of EP than in TAS. All differences were statistically significant(P < 0.05).CONCLUSION Compared with TAS, TVS has the advantages of high detection accuracy and good sonogram performance.展开更多

Study Design: This was a prospective case-control study of 85 cases of ruptured ectopic pregnancy and 100 cases of second trimester on-going intrauterine pregnant controls presenting in Lagos State University Teaching Hospital (LASUTH) between September 2009 and March 2010. Study Site: This was at the gynaecological emergency room and antenatal clinic in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology. Ethical approval was sought and granted by the ethics review committee of LASUTH. Study Participants: Patients presenting with ruptured ectopic pregnancy were recruited as cases while the controls were made up of those with uncomplicated second trimester intrauterine pregnancy. A semi-structured questionnaire containing socio-demographic and clinical characteristics was administered following informed consent. Five milliliters of venous blood was taken from each participant and tested for?Lymphogranuloma Venerum?(LGV) type 2 broadly reacting antigen of?Chlamydia trachomatis.?Data Analysis: Data gathered from the case notes and laboratories were imputed into the computer and analyzed using the statistical package?Epi-Info 3.51, Atlanta, USA. Frequency tables were generated for continuous variables and?chi-square analysis used to determine association between variables, with p values <0.05 considered statistically significant. Results: There were 91 cases of ectopic pregnancy among a total of 2468 deliveries giving an incidence of 3.68% or 1 in 27 deliveries. Factors which significantly contributed to increased incidence of ectopic pregnancy in this study were: level of education (p = 0.001), socio-economic status (p = 0.001), parity (p = 0.005), early age of sexual debut (p = 0.001), multiple sexual partners (p = 0.001), previous pelvic inflammatory disease (p = 0.003), previous induced abortion (p = 0.013) and previous?postabortal/puerperal sepsis (p = 0.013). The seropositivity of?Chlamydia IgG (62.4%) in the cases was significantly higher than that of 29% in the control (p < 0.0001). Conclusion: There was a high incidence of ectopic during the period of study and the seropositivity of Chlamydia IgG antibody was significantly higher amongst the cases. Risk factors identified were low level of education, low socio-economic status, low parity, early age of sexual debut, multiple sexual partners, previous history of pelvic inflammatory disease, previous induced abortion and previous postabortal/puerperal sepsis.展开更多

The diagnosis of ectopic...In women at risk for an ectopic pregnancy, every effort should be made to exclude the presence of an intrauterine pregnancy before embarking on an irreversible treatment for ectopic pregnancy. The diagnosis of ectopic pregnancy, unless directly visualized with transvaginal ultrasound, is made with the exclusion of an intrauterine pregnancy. Measurement of human chorionic gonadotrophin and progesterone levels, and transvaginal ultrasound are the tools used to evaluate early pregnancy. In women at risk for an ectopic pregnancy, every effort should be made to exclude the presence of an intrauterine pregnancy before embarking on an irreversible treatment course. Methotrexate is an antimetabolite that inhibits DNA synthesis and repair and cell replication. It is administered to ostensible destroy a pregnancy, especially ectopic pregnancies. When administered to an intrauterine pregnancy, embryonic death and missed abortion is the most common result, but early embryos that survive this exposure are likely to have multiple anomalies. The mistaken administration of methotrexate to an intrauterine pregnancy is made because of misinterpretation of the discriminatory zone of human chorionic gonadotropin(h CG), misinterpretation of early h CG serum levels, misinterpretation of early transvaginal ultrasound images, and failure to clinically correlate h CG levels and ultrasound findings.展开更多

The sudden rupture of ectopic pregnancy can lead to haemorrhagic shock and death if not diagnosed and treated in a timely fashion. The first step in the diagnosis of ectopic pregnancy is demonstration of pregnancy by means of a rapidly performed and sensitive qualitative urine test for the beta-subunit of human chorionic gonadotropin (beta-hCG). This case report demonstrates the importance of further consideration of the diagnosis of ectopic pregnancy in the setting of an unusual presentation like per rectal bleed and amenorrhea for three years in the presence of Mirena.展开更多

Incidences of ectopic pregnancy are increasing. Life can be saved with quickness and alertness. Objective: The objective of this study is to find out and evaluate the incidence, clinical presentation, risk factors, and management outcomes of ectopic pregnancies at Sri Guru Ram Rai Institute of Medical and Health Sciences (SGRRIMHS), Dehradun, Uttarakhand, India. Method: We did a retrospective study of the patients admitted in our hospital (SMI Hospital, SGRRIMHS) and study period was January 1, 2004 to December 31, 2013. Medical records were studied for management, total admission in obstetric wards, total births. Data were collected with the aid of data-entry forms designed for study. There were 4040 ANC patients admitted, out of which 202 cases were ectopic pregnancies. The relevant data collected were analyzed with SPSS for Windows. Result: Ectopic pregnancy constituted 5.0% of all ANC cases admitted in our Hospital. The mean age of patients was 25?±?2 years, 192 of 202 (95.04%) had ruptured pregnancies, and remaining 10 (4.96%) were unruptured. The commonest clinical presentation was abdominal pain (162 of 20280.19%). The commonest (120 of 202, 59.4%) cause was past history of induced abortion. 4 deaths (1.98%) were recorded. Conclusion: Ecotopic pregnancy is common and recognized cause of maternal morbidity and mortality. It is a recognized risk of induced abortion.展开更多

This condition also has an adverse effect on the fertility prospects of women who experience it. Objective: To determine the outcomes of subsequent spontaneous fertility after medical treatment of patients with methotrexate (MTX) in patients with ectopic pregnancy at two university teaching hospitals of Yaounde. Methodology: We carried out a cross-sectional study with retrospective data collection in two university teaching hospitals of Yaounde during a six years period from 1<sup>st</sup> January 2015 to 31<sup>st</sup> May 2021. Seventy records of patients who had medical treatment for ectopic pregnancy were included in this study. Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS. 23. The Chi-2 statistical test was used to compare qualitative variables. Binary logistic regression method was performed to identify independent risk factors associated with infertility after medical treatment of tubal ectopic pregnancy (TEP). The significance level was set at 0.05. Results: The mean age in our study population was 27.8 ± 3.8 years. According to the past medical history, 52.9% had a pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) and the most frequently germ found was C. trachomatis (47.1%). Almost 15% of our study population had previous surgery for EP. The median Fernandez score was 11 with a minimum score of 4 and a maximum score of 13. The route of administration of methotrexate was intramuscular in all our patients, and the single-dose protocol was used most frequently (58.6%). After medical treatment of the EP, we found a spontaneous conception rate of 58.6%. After multivariate analysis, we were unable to confirm that there was an association between a history of sexually transmitted infections (STIs) and fertility prognosis. Conclusion: The spontaneous fertility rate after medical management of EP was 58.6%, of which 73.2% were term pregnancies and 14.6% were recurrent ectopic pregnancies.展开更多

Methods: 20 pregnant women treated in our hospital in 2020 were selected. They were diagnosed by pathology to have different degrees of ectopic pregnancy. All pregnant women underwent transabdominal B-ultrasound and transvaginal B-ultrasound. The diagnostic accuracy of the two methods was compared. Results: in the diagnosis of ectopic pregnancy, there was a significant difference between the diagnostic accuracy of transabdominal B-ultrasound (80.00%) and transvaginal B-ultrasound (95.00%), which was statistically significant (P < 0.05). Conclusion: the application of transvaginal B-ultrasound in the diagnosis of ectopic pregnancy can significantly improve the diagnostic accuracy of ectopic pregnancy and provide a favorable treatment opportunity for the clinical treatment of this kind of pregnant women, which is worthy of further promotion in the diagnosis in the future.展开更多

Methods: 184 eligible patients in our hospital were selected. All patients were examined and diagnosed by transvaginal color Doppler ultrasound and abdominal color Doppler ultrasound. The combined diagnosis results were taken as the study group and the abdominal color Doppler ultrasound diagnosis results were taken as the control group. The differences in diagnosis accuracy and adverse reactions between the two groups were observed. Results: the detection rate of ectopic pregnancy in the study group was 97.82% and that in the control group was 89.67%. The diagnosis time, examination time and sleep quality score of the study group were 18.66±1.02min, 38.61±2.08min and 8.61±2.15 respectively, which were lower than those of the control group (26.28±3.24min, 46.22±3.81min and 12.51±3.48 respectively). The satisfaction score of the study group was 88.61±10.55 points higher than that of the control group (65.18±8.68 points). The incidence rate of adverse reactions in the study group was 3.26% and the incidence rate of adverse reactions in the control group was 5.97%. Compared with the above data, the difference was significant with statistical significance (P < 0.05). Conclusion: ectopic pregnancy is a common disease in women. If it cannot be found in time, the organ at the implantation site will rupture due to the over-development of the embryo, which poses a serious life threat. It is necessary to actively diagnose the patient as soon as possible, and terminate the embryo development in time, so as to reduce the incidence rate of acute abdomen and organ rupture in patients and avoid serious life threat in patients.展开更多

Methods Two hundred and fifteen women with ectopic pregnancy underwent operative laparoscopy. These patients were divided into two groups. The study group included 21 patients with shock and intraperitoneal hemorrhage more than 1000 mL, and control group included 194 patients, hemodynamically stable, with blood loss less than 1000 mL. Clinical data of perio-perative periods in two groups were retrospectively analyzed. Results All patients were tubal pregnancies. The occurrence rate of tubal rupture was higher in study group than in control group (80.95% vs. 15.98%, P < 0.001). Intraabdominal blood loss was significantly higher in study group than in control group (1900 mL vs. 300 mL, P < 0.001), and autologous blood transfusions were given to 95.24% and 9.3% of patients in study and control group, respectively (P < 0.001). Laparoscopic salpingectomy was performed on 85.7 % and 50.5% of patients in study and control group (P < 0.001). The operative time was somewhat longer in study group than that in control group (60 minutes vs. 45 minutes), but with no significant difference. All patients had no perioperative complications. Conclusion Operative laparoscopy in patients with hopovolemic shock can be safely and effectively performed by experi-enced laparoscopists with the aid of optimal anesthesia, advanced cardiovascular monitoring, and autologous blood transfusion.展开更多
文摘Background: Heterotopic pregnancy is a very rare event in a natural cycle. Its incidence is rising mostly due to induction of ovulation or Assisted Reproductive Technique. Most ectopic in heterotopic pregnancies are localized in the fallopian tubes. The occurrence of molar tubal ectopic pregnancy coexisting with intrauterine pregnancy is uncommon and consequently not often considered a diagnostic possibility. Case Report: We report the case of a 25-year-old woman, gravida 4 para 1, who complained of vaginal spotting and lower abdominal pain after 6 weeks of amenorrhea following clomiphene citrate ovarian stimulation. Transvaginal Ultrasonography revealed an intrauterine pregnancy and an unruptured left tubal ectopic pregnancy. She underwent successful laparoscopic salpingectomy while the intra-uterine pregnancy was allowed to continue. The ectopic pregnancy tissue histology reported an ectopic partial molar pregnancy. She subsequently had a normal vaginal delivery at 39 weeks and 3 days and her follow-up was uneventful. Conclusion: Heterotopic pregnancy is a rare but life-threatening condition. It should be suspected in a pregnant woman with a risk factor of multiple gestations who presents vaginal bleeding and lower abdominal pain in the context of early pregnancy. Laparoscopic surgery is effective for confirming the diagnosis and treating the ectopic component. Routine histological examination of tubal specimens must be taken very seriously because some findings like molar pregnancies may require specific management.
文摘A 35-year-old woman with a history of regular menstruation presented with a positive urine pregnancy test and elevated blood human chorionic gonadotropin concentrations.Color Doppler ultrasound showed multiple slightly hyperechoic areas within the uterine cavity.She was admitted to the hospital with a preliminary outpatient diagnosis of“suspected molar pregnancy,pending further evaluation.”
文摘The authors reported a case of molar ectopic pregnancy seen and managed at the maternity unit of the Bobo-Dioulasso Teaching Hospital. The frequency of the molar ectopic pregnancy is difficult to assess. Besides, the histopathological examination of surgical specimen of the salpingectomy is not usual in our setting. For the management, we realized a total left salpingectomy with a histopathological examination of surgical specimens in association with serum b HCG follow up. During post operations period, the patient was put on estro-progestin contraception for a year, a regular checkup of the biological marker of the molar pregnancy till negativation, a clinical, ultrasound and radiological checkup. No anomaly was noticed at the end of the follow up.
文摘Pregnancies in the same side tube after the same side ovary ovulation are more common. We report an unusual case of contralateral tubal ectopic pregnancy after ovulation of another side ovary in spontaneous cycles. A 32-year-old woman underwent laparoscopic left fallopian tube conservative surgery because of left tubal pregnancy two years ago. She returned to our hospital with a positive pregnancy test and lower abdominal pain 28 d after the dominant follicle discharged in the right side ovary detected by transvaginal ultrasound in spontaneous cycles. Transvaginal ultrasonography revealed no intrauterine gestational sac but a left adnexal mass measuring 2.6 cm X2.5 cm. Videolaparoscopy was performed, and the diagnosis of an ectopic pregnancy in the let fallopian tube was confirmed by pathologic report. Tubal damage is the most important risk factor for tubal ectopic pregnancy. Embryos can be reversely migrated toward fallopian tubes, due to retrograde action of endometrial waves and uterine contractions, that is another necessary reason which contributes to such tubal pregnancy. Total salpingectomy or tubal sterilization is necessary for avoiding repeated tubal ectopic pregnancy.
文摘BACKGROUND Ectopic pregnancy(EP) is one of the most common acute abdominal diseases in gynecology. Once the condition of EP is delayed, it may lead to massive hemorrhage, shock, and even death in a short time, seriously threatening the patient’s life. Early diagnosis is the key to preventing and improving the prognosis of EP.Transabdominal ultrasound(TAS) and transvaginal ultrasound(TVS) are the main diagnostic methods for abdominal diseases. The purpose of this study is to explore the application value and effect of TAS and TVS in the diagnosis of EP,hoping to provide more valuable references for the diagnosis of EP.AIM To explore the application value of TAS and TVS in the diagnosis of EP and to improve the level of clinical diagnosis.METHODS A total of 140 patients with EP admitted to our hospital from July 2018 to July 2020 were selected for this study. All patients were divided into two groups according to the examination methods. 63 patients who underwent abdominal ultrasound examination were set as the TAS group, while 77 patients who underwent TVS examination were set as the TVS group. We compared the diagnostic accuracy and misdiagnosis rates between the two types of ultrasound examinations, as well as the postoperative pathological results of the two diagnostic methods for different types of ectopic pregnancies. We also analyzed the sonograms for the presence of mixed ectopic masses,adnexal masses, ectopic gestational sacs, the presence or absence of visible embryo and fetal heart in the ectopic sac shadow, and the detection of fluid in the rectal fossa of the uterus, such as the adnexal area, yolk sac, and embryo, etc. In addition, the diagnosis time, days of gestational sac appearance, operation time, endometrial thickness, and blood flow resistance index were compared as well.RESULTS After performing both types of ultrasound examinations in 140 patients with EP, we found that the diagnostic accuracy of TVS was significantly higher than that of TAS, and the misdiagnosis rate was significantly lower than that of TAS. The differences were statistically significant(P < 0.05). In addition, the detection rate of TVS was better than that of TAS for the presence of mixed masses,adnexal masses, ectopic gestational sacs, the presence or absence of visible embryo and fetal heart in the shadow of the ectopic sac, and sonograms such as the adnexal area, yolk sac, and embryo,etc. The coincidence rate of its postoperative pathological examination results was significantly higher than those of TAS. The diagnosis time and the days of gestational sac appearance by TVS were significantly shorter than that by TAS, and the operation time was earlier than that by TAS.What’s more, the detection rates of the endometrial thickness ￡ 1.5 mm and blood flow resistance ￡0.5 were significantly higher in TVS diagnosis of EP than in TAS. All differences were statistically significant(P < 0.05).CONCLUSION Compared with TAS, TVS has the advantages of high detection accuracy and good sonogram performance.
文摘Objectives: To determine the seropositivity of Chlamydia antibody in patients with ruptured ectopic pregnancy compared to normal pregnant women and the risk factors for ectopic pregnancy. Study Design: This was a prospective case-control study of 85 cases of ruptured ectopic pregnancy and 100 cases of second trimester on-going intrauterine pregnant controls presenting in Lagos State University Teaching Hospital (LASUTH) between September 2009 and March 2010. Study Site: This was at the gynaecological emergency room and antenatal clinic in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology. Ethical approval was sought and granted by the ethics review committee of LASUTH. Study Participants: Patients presenting with ruptured ectopic pregnancy were recruited as cases while the controls were made up of those with uncomplicated second trimester intrauterine pregnancy. A semi-structured questionnaire containing socio-demographic and clinical characteristics was administered following informed consent. Five milliliters of venous blood was taken from each participant and tested for?Lymphogranuloma Venerum?(LGV) type 2 broadly reacting antigen of?Chlamydia trachomatis.?Data Analysis: Data gathered from the case notes and laboratories were imputed into the computer and analyzed using the statistical package?Epi-Info 3.51, Atlanta, USA. Frequency tables were generated for continuous variables and?chi-square analysis used to determine association between variables, with p values <0.05 considered statistically significant. Results: There were 91 cases of ectopic pregnancy among a total of 2468 deliveries giving an incidence of 3.68% or 1 in 27 deliveries. Factors which significantly contributed to increased incidence of ectopic pregnancy in this study were: level of education (p = 0.001), socio-economic status (p = 0.001), parity (p = 0.005), early age of sexual debut (p = 0.001), multiple sexual partners (p = 0.001), previous pelvic inflammatory disease (p = 0.003), previous induced abortion (p = 0.013) and previous?postabortal/puerperal sepsis (p = 0.013). The seropositivity of?Chlamydia IgG (62.4%) in the cases was significantly higher than that of 29% in the control (p < 0.0001). Conclusion: There was a high incidence of ectopic during the period of study and the seropositivity of Chlamydia IgG antibody was significantly higher amongst the cases. Risk factors identified were low level of education, low socio-economic status, low parity, early age of sexual debut, multiple sexual partners, previous history of pelvic inflammatory disease, previous induced abortion and previous postabortal/puerperal sepsis.
文摘In women at risk for an ectopic pregnancy, every effort should be made to exclude the presence of an intrauterine pregnancy before embarking on an irreversible treatment for ectopic pregnancy. The diagnosis of ectopic pregnancy, unless directly visualized with transvaginal ultrasound, is made with the exclusion of an intrauterine pregnancy. Measurement of human chorionic gonadotrophin and progesterone levels, and transvaginal ultrasound are the tools used to evaluate early pregnancy. In women at risk for an ectopic pregnancy, every effort should be made to exclude the presence of an intrauterine pregnancy before embarking on an irreversible treatment course. Methotrexate is an antimetabolite that inhibits DNA synthesis and repair and cell replication. It is administered to ostensible destroy a pregnancy, especially ectopic pregnancies. When administered to an intrauterine pregnancy, embryonic death and missed abortion is the most common result, but early embryos that survive this exposure are likely to have multiple anomalies. The mistaken administration of methotrexate to an intrauterine pregnancy is made because of misinterpretation of the discriminatory zone of human chorionic gonadotropin(h CG), misinterpretation of early h CG serum levels, misinterpretation of early transvaginal ultrasound images, and failure to clinically correlate h CG levels and ultrasound findings.

文摘BACKGROUND Abdominal pregnancy is a rare type of ectopic pregnancy.We describe here a case of ectopic pregnancy implanted under the surface of the diaphragm,presenting the particular features of imaging findings from ultrasound,computed tomography(CT)and magnetic resonance imaging(MRI).CASE SUMMARY A 30-year-old woman presented with complaint of intermittent abdominal pain,that had begun 5 d earlier.She had no current or abnormal vaginal bleeding,and her serum human chorionic gonadotropin level(13372.08 IU/L)indicated pregnancy.Vaginal ultrasound showed a mixed echogenic mass in the right ovary.CT(plain)scan showed a curved high density mass beneath the subhepatic space.MRI scan showed a curved mixed signal,with restricted diffusion beneath the subhepatic space.Abdominal ultrasound demonstrated a mixed echogenic mass in the right lobe of the liver near the apex of the diaphragm,with a visible yolk sac and germ cell region with a bud.Subsequent laparoscopy visualized a dark red mass under the right diaphragm,which was resected completely.Histopathological examination of the resected mass confirmed an ectopic pregnancy.The recovery was swift and uneventful,and the patient was discharged to home.CONCLUSION Ectopic pregnancy should be in the differential diagnostic workup(via multiple imaging modalities)of childbearing woman with unexplained abdominal pain.
文摘Ectopic pregnancy has been increasing in frequency over the past 2 decades. The sudden rupture of ectopic pregnancy can lead to haemorrhagic shock and death if not diagnosed and treated in a timely fashion. The first step in the diagnosis of ectopic pregnancy is demonstration of pregnancy by means of a rapidly performed and sensitive qualitative urine test for the beta-subunit of human chorionic gonadotropin (beta-hCG). This case report demonstrates the importance of further consideration of the diagnosis of ectopic pregnancy in the setting of an unusual presentation like per rectal bleed and amenorrhea for three years in the presence of Mirena.
文摘Introduction: Ectopic pregnancy is an emergency in obstetric wards and a significant cause of maternal morbidity and mortality. Incidences of ectopic pregnancy are increasing. Life can be saved with quickness and alertness. Objective: The objective of this study is to find out and evaluate the incidence, clinical presentation, risk factors, and management outcomes of ectopic pregnancies at Sri Guru Ram Rai Institute of Medical and Health Sciences (SGRRIMHS), Dehradun, Uttarakhand, India. Method: We did a retrospective study of the patients admitted in our hospital (SMI Hospital, SGRRIMHS) and study period was January 1, 2004 to December 31, 2013. Medical records were studied for management, total admission in obstetric wards, total births. Data were collected with the aid of data-entry forms designed for study. There were 4040 ANC patients admitted, out of which 202 cases were ectopic pregnancies. The relevant data collected were analyzed with SPSS for Windows. Result: Ectopic pregnancy constituted 5.0% of all ANC cases admitted in our Hospital. The mean age of patients was 25?±?2 years, 192 of 202 (95.04%) had ruptured pregnancies, and remaining 10 (4.96%) were unruptured. The commonest clinical presentation was abdominal pain (162 of 20280.19%). The commonest (120 of 202, 59.4%) cause was past history of induced abortion. 4 deaths (1.98%) were recorded. Conclusion: Ecotopic pregnancy is common and recognized cause of maternal morbidity and mortality. It is a recognized risk of induced abortion.

文摘BACKGROUND Primary abdominal pregnancy is an extremely rare form of ectopic pregnancy.Ectopic pregnancies that occur in the liver and diaphragm are even rarer,limited case reports are available in the literature.CASE SUMMARY A woman of childbearing age was transferred to the emergency department due to lumbar and abdominal pain radiating to the back toward the lower right.After a series of physical and auxiliary examinations,she was clinically diagnosed with hepatic ectopic pregnancy.Laparoscopic surgery was performed to remove the pregnancy tissue and achieve hemostasis.After a period of follow-up,the patient was successfully cured.CONCLUSION Paying attention to the patient's signs and utilizing imaging examination methods can help avoid missed diagnoses of liver pregnancy.
文摘Background: Ectopic pregnancy is a major cause of maternal morbidity and mortality, estimated to occur in 1% - 2% of pregnancies worldwide. This condition also has an adverse effect on the fertility prospects of women who experience it. Objective: To determine the outcomes of subsequent spontaneous fertility after medical treatment of patients with methotrexate (MTX) in patients with ectopic pregnancy at two university teaching hospitals of Yaounde. Methodology: We carried out a cross-sectional study with retrospective data collection in two university teaching hospitals of Yaounde during a six years period from 1<sup>st</sup> January 2015 to 31<sup>st</sup> May 2021. Seventy records of patients who had medical treatment for ectopic pregnancy were included in this study. Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS. 23. The Chi-2 statistical test was used to compare qualitative variables. Binary logistic regression method was performed to identify independent risk factors associated with infertility after medical treatment of tubal ectopic pregnancy (TEP). The significance level was set at 0.05. Results: The mean age in our study population was 27.8 ± 3.8 years. According to the past medical history, 52.9% had a pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) and the most frequently germ found was C. trachomatis (47.1%). Almost 15% of our study population had previous surgery for EP. The median Fernandez score was 11 with a minimum score of 4 and a maximum score of 13. The route of administration of methotrexate was intramuscular in all our patients, and the single-dose protocol was used most frequently (58.6%). After medical treatment of the EP, we found a spontaneous conception rate of 58.6%. After multivariate analysis, we were unable to confirm that there was an association between a history of sexually transmitted infections (STIs) and fertility prognosis. Conclusion: The spontaneous fertility rate after medical management of EP was 58.6%, of which 73.2% were term pregnancies and 14.6% were recurrent ectopic pregnancies.
文摘Objective To investigate the clinical diagnosis and treatment of caesarean scar pregnancy （CSP）. Methods We reported here a case of recurrent ectopic pregnancy within a previous cesarean scar and reviewed the literature. Results Surgical evacuation of a CSP was a small side effect and effective treatment of CSP. Conclusion Early and accurate diagnosis, timeliness and effective treatment were extremely important in saving patients＇ life and retaining their fertility.
文摘Objective: to analyze the clinical effect of transabdominal B-ultrasound and transvaginal B-ultrasound in the diagnosis of ectopic pregnancy. Methods: 20 pregnant women treated in our hospital in 2020 were selected. They were diagnosed by pathology to have different degrees of ectopic pregnancy. All pregnant women underwent transabdominal B-ultrasound and transvaginal B-ultrasound. The diagnostic accuracy of the two methods was compared. Results: in the diagnosis of ectopic pregnancy, there was a significant difference between the diagnostic accuracy of transabdominal B-ultrasound (80.00%) and transvaginal B-ultrasound (95.00%), which was statistically significant (P < 0.05). Conclusion: the application of transvaginal B-ultrasound in the diagnosis of ectopic pregnancy can significantly improve the diagnostic accuracy of ectopic pregnancy and provide a favorable treatment opportunity for the clinical treatment of this kind of pregnant women, which is worthy of further promotion in the diagnosis in the future.
文摘Ectopic pregnancy(EP)could be defined as any embryo that got implanted in any site rather than the endometrial cavity.Lately,different types of EP were reportedly managed by high-intensity focused ultrasound(HIFU).We aimed to pool all available data in a systematic review without meta-analysis and investigate the efficacy and safety tendencies of HIFU among different types of EP.We applied our comprehensive terms in Google Scholar,PubMed,Scopus,Ovid,and PubMed Central databases from their inception until September 23.Retrieved references were gathered using EndNote in which we omitted the duplicates and exported the record for screening.Data regarding character-istics,safety and efficacy outcomes,and baseline information of the enrolled population were extracted.The eligible case reports were assessed using a tool by Murad and colleagues,while the quality of the included cohorts was appraised using the NIH tool.We retrieved 6637 studies,which were scruti-nized by titles and abstracts.We scrutinized the full texts of 36 studies and ultimately included a total of 17 studies.All studies were conducted in China,and on different types of ectopic pregnancy including tubal,cervical,intra-mural,caesarian scar,and corneal ectopic pregnancy.The mean age of enrolled patients was 33.03 years,and we pooled a total sample of 853 patients.The follow-up period varied widely among the included studies,ranging from 1.3 months to up to 69 months.Normal menstruation recurred after a mean of 35 days,as reported by nine studies.Most of the included studies reported normalβ-HCG after around 30-40 days.Twelve studies with 757 patients reported a cumulative incidence of 179 cases of abdominal pain after HIFU.Neither of the enrolled patients reportedly complained of skin burn after HIFU.We suggested managing EP patients with HIFU,especially when seeking further conceiving.High-quality randomized controlled trials are required to draw a stronger level of evidence.
文摘Objective: to observe the diagnostic accuracy of transvaginal color Doppler ultrasound and abdominal color Doppler ultrasound in patients with ectopic pregnancy, and to make a comparative study on the detection of ectopic pregnancy in different locations of patients. Methods: 184 eligible patients in our hospital were selected. All patients were examined and diagnosed by transvaginal color Doppler ultrasound and abdominal color Doppler ultrasound. The combined diagnosis results were taken as the study group and the abdominal color Doppler ultrasound diagnosis results were taken as the control group. The differences in diagnosis accuracy and adverse reactions between the two groups were observed. Results: the detection rate of ectopic pregnancy in the study group was 97.82% and that in the control group was 89.67%. The diagnosis time, examination time and sleep quality score of the study group were 18.66±1.02min, 38.61±2.08min and 8.61±2.15 respectively, which were lower than those of the control group (26.28±3.24min, 46.22±3.81min and 12.51±3.48 respectively). The satisfaction score of the study group was 88.61±10.55 points higher than that of the control group (65.18±8.68 points). The incidence rate of adverse reactions in the study group was 3.26% and the incidence rate of adverse reactions in the control group was 5.97%. Compared with the above data, the difference was significant with statistical significance (P < 0.05). Conclusion: ectopic pregnancy is a common disease in women. If it cannot be found in time, the organ at the implantation site will rupture due to the over-development of the embryo, which poses a serious life threat. It is necessary to actively diagnose the patient as soon as possible, and terminate the embryo development in time, so as to reduce the incidence rate of acute abdomen and organ rupture in patients and avoid serious life threat in patients.
文摘Ectopic pregnancy is defined as the fertilized ovum implants in a location outside the endometrial cavity, remains to be an important cause of maternal morbidity and mortality worldwide and is a health problem with incidence ranges between 0.25% and 2% of all pregnancies. In our study, in Izmir Katip Celebi University Ataturk Training and Research Hospital, Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology from 2011 to 2013, 96 cases with diagnosis of ectopic pregnancy managed by the adapted RCOG’s Guide were analyzed retrospectively. The data were analyzed as follows: age, the history of operation, smoking, the presence of intrauterine device, blood groups, hemoglobin, platelets, values of B-hCG, the diagnostic interval, intra-abdominal free fluid and/or acute abdomen, the method of treatment and the success of treatment.
文摘Objective To evaluate the feasibility and safety of operative laparoscopy for ectopic pregnancy with hypovolemic shock. Methods Two hundred and fifteen women with ectopic pregnancy underwent operative laparoscopy. These patients were divided into two groups. The study group included 21 patients with shock and intraperitoneal hemorrhage more than 1000 mL, and control group included 194 patients, hemodynamically stable, with blood loss less than 1000 mL. Clinical data of perio-perative periods in two groups were retrospectively analyzed. Results All patients were tubal pregnancies. The occurrence rate of tubal rupture was higher in study group than in control group (80.95% vs. 15.98%, P < 0.001). Intraabdominal blood loss was significantly higher in study group than in control group (1900 mL vs. 300 mL, P < 0.001), and autologous blood transfusions were given to 95.24% and 9.3% of patients in study and control group, respectively (P < 0.001). Laparoscopic salpingectomy was performed on 85.7 % and 50.5% of patients in study and control group (P < 0.001). The operative time was somewhat longer in study group than that in control group (60 minutes vs. 45 minutes), but with no significant difference. All patients had no perioperative complications. Conclusion Operative laparoscopy in patients with hopovolemic shock can be safely and effectively performed by experi-enced laparoscopists with the aid of optimal anesthesia, advanced cardiovascular monitoring, and autologous blood transfusion.
