Spontaneous Ectopic Tubal Pregnancy After Partial Salpingectomy.

ABSTRACT

Objective: To report a rare case of spontaneous ectopic pregnancy (EP) after partial salpingectomy treated by laparoscopy. Case Report A 30-year-old gravida 1 para 0 woman with a history of left adnexectomy, due to left ovarian torsion 13 years ago, was referred to our hospital. She had experienced lower abdominal pain for 1 day and amenorrhea for 1 week. Transvaginal ultrasonography did not reveal an intrauterine pregnancy, but showed a suspected extrauterine gestational sac on the left adnexal area. The patient was diagnosed with ectopic pregnancy, and laparoscopy was performed. During the operation, we found a gestational sac on the left fallopian tube stump. Conclusion: The most significant risk factors for ectopic pregnancy (EP) are previous procedures and conditions that cause tubal injury. Therefore, it is necessary to be alert to the occurrence of the disease even if there is a history of tubal resection and ensure no part of the fallopian tube is left behind during removal.
