Abstract
Three cases of cervical ectopic pregnancy treated medically are described. The first case with selective uterine artery embolization and methotrexate dose single, the second case with selective uterine artery embolization and methotrexate dose multiple, and the third case intraamniotic puncture and instillation of KCl due to persistent embryonic heartbeat was necesary, before selective uterine artery and methotrexate dose unique. A spontaneous evacuation of the cervical pregnancy occurred in all patients treated conservatively. We postulate that the preventive use of uterine artery embolization in combination with standard MTX treatment could contribute to reduce the risk of excessive bleeding and facilitate spontaneous expulsion. The diagnostic and therapeutic methods are discussed and the literature is reviewed.
