Description

This video demonstrates Laparoscopic Management of Ruptured Tubal Pregnancy (ectopic pregnancy). This type of ectopic pregnancy is called a tubal pregnancy. Sometimes, an ectopic pregnancy occurs in other body areas, such as the ovary, abdominal cavity, or the lower part of the uterus (cervix), which connects to the vagina. A ruptured ectopic pregnancy is a medical emergency in which a fertilized egg implants itself outside the uterus. Usually, an ectopic pregnancy is situated in one of the fallopian tubes. As it grows, it can cause the tube to tear or burst. This results in dangerous internal bleeding. An ectopic pregnancy occurs in roughly one in 50 pregnancies. The risk of recurrent ectopic pregnancy in the salvaged tube will be increased. Surgical management is typically offered to patients with severe pain, serum β-HCG over 5000 mIU/ml, adnexal mass bigger than 34 mm, and/or fetal heartbeat visible on the scan. Advantages: Reassurance about when the definitive treatment can be provided, high success rate.
