Abstract
Laparoscopic salpingostomy is commonly performed to preserve fertility in cases of ectopic tubal pregnancy. However, persistent ectopic pregnancy (PEP) possibly occurs because of remaining trophoblastic tissue inside and/or outside the fallopian tube. We report an uncommon case of a woman who had severe abdominal bleeding caused by omental trophoblastic implants after laparoscopic salpingostomy. To prevent such a severe complication after initial surgery, local or systemic adjuvant therapy such as methotrexate therapy should be considered in high-risk PEP cases.
