ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the clinical value of interventional ultrasound treatment for non-ruptured ectopic pregnancy. Methods Seventeen cases of ectopic pregnancy with masses 20~50 mm(mean,35 mm) in diameter and embryo sacs 15~42 mm(mean,26 mm) in diameter were included.Under the guidance of ultrasonography,needle puncture and aspiration of lesions of ectopic pregnancy was conducted through the posterior fornix.Then the methotrexate(MTX) 20~40 mg was injected into.Results All the 17 cases were punctured and MTX-injected on one session.The embryo sac disappeared within 4 weeks after the treatment in 16 cases,while there was no improvement in 1 case and a further surgery was given.Of the 16 successfully treated cases,salpingography showed the oviduct as "patent" in 14 cases and as "unobstructed" in 2.Conclusions Interventional ultrasound treatment of non-ruptured ectopic pregnancy has advantages of simplicity of performance,good safety and efficiency,minimal invasion,and few adverse effects.This procedure is worthy of being recommended.
