Successful Medical Management of Interstitial Pregnancy

Abstract

ABSTRACT Interstitial pregnancies account for 2 to 4% of all tubal pregnancies and have seven times higher mortality rates than ectopic pregnancy in general. It poses a significant risk of bleeding and rupture. The conventional treatment of Interstitial pregnancy involves resection of the cornual tissue. Conservative management with methotrexate systemically and locally has been reported with varying doses. We present a case of interstitial pregnancy diagnosed at 11 weeks of gestation and with high human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) levels managed successfully with systemic methotrexate.
