Conservative nonsurgical treatment of early detected tubal pregnancies with intra-amniotic methotrexate.
Four cases of early detected tubal pregnancies were managed conservatively by aspiration and administration of 20 mg methotrexate into the amniotic sac during laparoscopy. All three women for whom hysterosalpingograms are available had patent tubes on the side of the former ectopic pregnancy six months after treatment. Spontaneous menstruation occurred within six weeks after methotrexate application in all cases.
