[Fecundify after treatment of tubal pregnancy].

UNLABELLED

This study is a follow-up analysis of 103 patients who desired to preserve their fertile ability after treatment of tubal pregnancy. Among the 103 cases, 58 were treated by unilateral salpingectomy, 15 by salpingostomy and 30 by drug conservative therapy.

RESULTS

67 cases had intrauterine pregnancy and 9 cases repeated ectopic pregnancy. The intrauterine pregnancy rate of the surgical group (71.2%) was higher than that of the nonsurgical group (50.0%). And the pregnancy rate of salpingostomy group (86.7%) was higher than that of salpingectomy group (67.2%). No repeated ectopic pregnancy occurred in the salpingostomy group. After three months of treatment, 45 cases were randomly sampled for tubal patency test. Bilateral tubal patency rate in salpingostomy group was 93.3% and in drug treatment group was 20.0%. These results indicated that tubal patency is an essential factor for normal pregnancy. Prevention of post-operative adhesion and treatment of pelvic inflammatory disease are important for increasing intrauterine pregnancy rate and decreasing repeated ectopic pregnancy rate.
