RESUMO
From 1977-1989, 298 ectopic pregnancies were treated pelviscopically at the Dept. of Gynaecology Hospital of the University of Kiel. 26 tubes were already ruptured. In 251 patients (84%), organ preserving treatment was possible, 205 treatment by longitudinal salpingotomy. 46 tubal abortions were extracted. In 47 patients (16%), who did not wish to augment their family any further, or in whom recurrence of tubal pregnancy occurred on the same side, salpingectomy was performed. Complications required re-pelviscopy in 5% and laparotomy in another 1%. The intrauterine pregnancy rate in 143 patients desiring pregnancy was 58%. Abortions occurred in 8%. A recurrence of ectopic pregnancy in the ipsilateral tube occurred in 10%, in the contralateral tube in 6%. 9 patients desiring pregnancy had already undergone salpingectomy on the contralateral side or were treated pelviscopically by longitudinal salpingotomy because of ectopic pregnancy on both sides. Three of them gave birth to healthy infants.
