Unruptured interstitial ectopic pregnancy: A rare case report
Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Medical Case Reports - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 11
Abstract
Interstitial pregnancy is an ectopic pregnancy that develops in the interstitial portion of the fallopian tube accounting 2-4%. It often mimics an ectopic pregnancy and ruptures much later leading to catastrophic outcomes. Hence correct diagnosis and prompt treatment helps prevent serious maternal morbidity and mortality. We report a case of interstitial unruptured ectopic pregnancy diagnosed on USG and managed surgically. Keywords: Interstitial ectopic pregnancy; USG- ultrasonography; HCG
