Transcervical tubal cannulation and falloposcopy for the management of tubal pregnancy.
This is the first report of transcervical salpingoscopic visualization of tubal pregnancy in two patients. The falloposcope was introduced through a catheter used routinely for transcervical tubal cannulation, guided by tactile impression. We have previously demonstrated that it is possible to diagnose and treat tubal pregnancies via a transcervical intra-Fallopian cannula. Falloposcopy could help select appropriate patients for transcervical intra-Fallopian therapy by verifying the site of implantation and the characteristics of the ectopic pregnancy.
