Abstract
Aim: To discuss the diagnosis and treatment of non-tubal ectopic pregnancies (NTEP) associated with the cervical and uterine canal.Materials and Methods: In this cross-sectional retrospective study, we analyzed our hospital records in terms of cervical, angular (or cornual), scar, and cervico-isthmic NTEP from 2009 to 2017 and identified 112 cases between 5 and 13 weeks.Results: There were 70, 20, 17, and 5 women in the scar, cervical, angular (or cornual), and cervico-isthmic ectopic pregnancy groups; respectively. The gravity, parity, postoperative hospital stay length, admission complaints, previous cesarean section and treatment methods were compared among the four groups, a significant difference was found.Conclusion: The surgical approach can be considered as the first-line treatment option in NTEP associated with the cervical and uterine canal. Due to the high potential for complications, early diagnosis and timely referral to tertiary health centres are crucial.
