Forty patients with tubal ectopic pregnancies seen over an 18 month period are studied. Epidemiological parameters in the three major groups are compared. The diagnostic problems, signs and symptoms are discussed. Aetiological factors in this area are compared with changing trends in other centres. Pelvic inflammatory disease remains an important cause. The role of conservative approach in surg...

Peritoneal pregnancy is an implantation in the peritoneal cavity exclusive of tubal, ovarian, or intra-ligamentary implantations. This is a rare obstetric complication with high maternal mortality and even higher perinatal mortality, and secondary type was most common.

Her urinary pregnancy test was positive. Initial transvaginal ultrasound demonstrated an irregular complex structure with a fluid filled centre in the right adnexum.

In order to elucidate the change in alpha-smooth muscle actin (ASMA)-positive and CD34-positive stromal cells associated with pregnancy, we examined endometrial and Fallopian tube tissues from 40 patients including normal endometrium (n=10), intra-uterine pregnancy (n=10), normal Fallopian tube (n=10), and tubal pregnancy (n=10), using immunohistochemistry. In normal endometrium, only a few ASM...

background: the current research to the best of my knowledge is the first to compare the pregnancy outcome between ultrasound-guided tubal recanalization (ugtr) using a special fallopian tubal catheter, and office-based micrhysteroscopic ostial dilatation (mhod) using the same tubal catherter in infertile women with previously diagnosed bilateral proximal tubal obstruction (pto). materials and ...

Transvaginal sonography (TVS) is now the imaging modality of choice for the diagnosis of ectopic pregnancy with overall reported sensitivities of>90%. Specific sonographic criteria exist for the diagnosis of tubal and non-tubal pregnancies including cervical and caesarean section scar pregnancies. Diagnosis is based on the visualization of an ectopic mass rather than the inability to visualize ...

BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVES Women with endometriosis often need in vitro fertilization (IVF) to concieve. There are conflicting data on the results of IVF in patients with endometriosis.
