  • Title: [The treatment of tubal pregnancy with methotrexate].
    Author: Stambolov B, Pandurski F, Slavov N.
    Journal: Akush Ginekol (Sofiia); 1990; 29(1):44-7. PubMed ID: 2372098.
    Abstract:
    After a brief review on the possibilities for conservative treatment of tubal pregnancy the authors described a woman with left tubal pregnancy, in whom metotrexat was used successfully in a dose of 20 mg 4 times every other day administered intramuscularly. The right uterine tube of the woman was removed during the preceding ectopic pregnancy. The patency of the remaining tube was examined after a 2-month period, during which anti-inflammatory treatment was performed as well. An opinion is given that such conservative treatment should be used only in strictly diagnosed patients and with the single aim-preservation of reproductive capabilities of the woman, when there is no other way of treatment. When there are no reproductive aims, the operative method is recommended.
