Abstract
RUIPEREZ PACHECO, Estefanía et al. Cervical ectopic pregnancy: A case report. Rev. peru. ginecol. obstet. [online]. 2019, vol.65, n.4, pp.349-352. ISSN 2304-5132. http://dx.doi.org/10.31403/rpgo.v65i2213.
Cervical ectopic gestation is extremely rare, currently representing 0.1% of ectopic pregnancies. There is a high risk of bleeding due to the proximity between the uterine arteries and the cervix. In most cases, late diagnosis is associated with heavy bleeding and high mortality. We present a case of ectopic cervical pregnancy conservatively managed with intramuscular methotrexate, and we review the literature regarding diagnosis and treatment.
