Ectopic pregnancy is an important cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Use of transvaginal ultrasonography and quantitative measurement of the beta subunit of human chorionic gonadotropin (beta-hCG) has led to a reduction in the need for diagnostic laparoscopy. Furthermore, with earlier diagnosis, medical therapy with methotrexate can be offered

Ruptured ectopic pregnancy [PDF]
Journal of Perioperative Practice, 2016 It is thought-provoking to remember that until 1883 a ruptured ectopic pregnancy was a death sentence. In his book on this condition, by the physician, John Parry, published in 1876, we read “here is an accident which may happen to any wife in the most useful period of her existence which good authorities have said is never cured… no remedy, either ...

The differential diagnosis in a pregnant patient who presents with pain and bleeding in the first trimester includes normal early pregnancy, spontaneous abortion, molar pregnancy, and ectopic pregnancy. Knowledge of the sonographic appearance of these entities is helpful at arriving at the correct diagnosis. When no intrauterine pregnancy is visualized,

Current Opinion in Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1992
During the last two decades, the incidence of ectopic pregnancy was shown to be rising. At the same time, ectopic pregnancy became less lethal due to improvements in diagnostic procedures, which are now able to confirm the ectopic implantation before the occurrence of life-threatening hemorrhagic complications.

Clinical Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1991
The diagnosis and management of ectopic pregnancy is changing rapidly. More sensitive pregnancy tests and high-resolution transvaginal sonography are making the diagnosis of ectopic pregnancy easier and earlier. In the future, we may become more confident with the ultrasound diagnosis of some ectopic pregnancies such that laparoscopic confirmation will
