Cesarean section scar pregnancy treatment - Case report

Abstract

This is a case report of a 36-year-old patient with an ectopic pregnancy located in the previous cesarean section scar following in vitro fertilization (IVF). The patient was treated by 50 mg of intrasacular methotrexate locally under ultrasound guidance. Transvaginal ultrasound (TVUS) confirmed that the pregnancy was no longer vital within 24 hours, dilatation and aspiration of the ovular tissue were performed after seven days and it was sent for pathohistological analysis. Eight hours after the procedure, the patient began bleeding abundantly and was consequently treated locally by 1 ml of Beriplast® P Combi set, human fibrinogen, and human thrombin set (CSL Behring). After the treatment, the patient was discharged in good health, with normal laboratory values. Her menstrual period resumed 35 days after the procedure.
