A Case of Cervical Pregnancy Treated by both Intraamniotic and Systemic Methotrexate Injection / 대한산부인과학회잡지

ABSTRACT

Cervical pregnancy is a rare form of ectopic pregnancy and it can cause life-threatening bleeding. Until recently abdominal hysterectomy has been considered the standard therapy for fear of profuse hemorrhage. Methotrexate, however, can be useful agent to conserve further fertility and it is used in various routes of administration. We report a case of cervical pregnancy that was successfully treated by intraamniotic methotrexate injection under the guidance of transvaginal ultrasonography and subsequent four systemic doses thereafter.
