The condition of tubal ectopic pregnancy is presented from diverse points of view, bringing out physiological explanations for its occurrence in primates and striking absence in other mammals. Part of the flexibility underlying ectopic pregnancy in humans stems from the absence of a uterine luteolytic mechanism, enabling early embryonic development in the Fallopian tube without compromising fun...

Heterotopic Pregnancy (HP) is the simultaneous development of an intra-uterine pregnancy and ectopic pregnancy. In natural cycle, it is a very rare event. With the increasing popularity of ovulation induction performed during assisted reproductive techniques, its incidence has significantly increased. However, diagnosis is often delayed because of its rarity and difficulty. Heterotopic pregnanc...

Objective Tubal sterilization is a widespread method of contraception. Post-sterilization regret is encountered, despite careful consideration prior to the procedure. Two treatment options are available for women after having had tubal sterilization: microsurgical reversal and IVF treatment. Recent improvements in laparoscopy have allowed tubal reanastomosis to be performed. This study aimed to...

Objective: To describe a novel noninvasive diagnostic technique, named virtual sonographic hysterosalpingoscopy, which can be helpful for the detection of ectopic tubal pregnancy. Materials & Methods: Sonographic hysterosalpingoscopy was performed with the use of fly-through technology in 10 pregnant women in whom ectopic pregnancy was suspected. All examinations were performed by a vaginal ult...

BACKGROUND The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of methotrexate (MTX) treatment on the ultrasonographic appearance of extrauterine pregnancy (EUP) and, particularly, to test the hypothesis that the ultrasonographic appearance is not predictive of treatment success. METHODS A prospective cohort study. The study group included 56 women with tubal EUP who received a single-dos...

Broad ligament pregnancy also termed as interligamentous pregnancy is a rare form of ectopic pregnancy. Incidence is reported as 1 in 300 ectopic pregnancies. A broad ligament pregnancy usually results from trophoblastic penetration of tubal pregnancy through the tubal serosa and into the mesosalpinx, with secondary implantation between the leaves of broad ligament. It can also occur if a uteri...

Objectives. To evaluate the diagnostic performance of medical history in the diagnosis of tubal pathology among subfertile patients. Patients and Methods. Prospective cross-sectional study was performed. Prior to tubal evaluation, medical history data were collected. Sensitivity, specificity, and likelihood ratios (LRs) for predicting tubal pathology as determined by laparoscopy and dye test we...

Anahtar Kelimeler: Gebelik, Ektopik, Metotreksat, Nötrofil, Lenfosit, Plateletler Objective: A %2 of all pregnancies composed of ectopic pregnancy, further more than 95% of cases localized on the fallopian tubes. The aim of this study is to assess the success of metotrexate treatment on tubal pregnancy, and the relation between the neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio and thrombocyte-lymphocyte ratio, a...

OBJECTIVE The aim of this work was to analyse the fertility prognosis after conservative or radical surgery for tubal pregnancy. DATA SOURCES Index Medicus was searched for all attainable literature on the subject. METHODS OF STUDY SELECTION A total of 40 scientific publications through the latest 40 years were selected. For fulfilling the selection criterias the study design should appear ...
