Abstract

Video Objective To present our experience of laparoscopic management of cornual ectopic pregnancy. Setting Tulip Multispeciality Hospital. Interventions Laparoscopic surgery as a treatment modality for cornual pregnancy. Laparoscopic wedge resection was carried out for corneal pregnancy. A circumferential incision was made above the base of the cornual pregnancy thus leaving behind sufficient serosal and myometrial tissue for closure with minimal distortion to the uterus. After extirpation of the cornual pregnancy, the myometrial defect was reconstituted with Vicryl 1-0 in two layers. Hemostasis was achieved by suturing. Conclusion We have to be aware that conual pregnancy can be presented even after salpingectomy and laparoscopic approach for cornual ectopic is minimally invasive, safe procedure if performed by a confident and experienced surgeon.
