[Decrease of HCG level after conservative laparoscopic treatment of extra-uterine pregnancy].
HCG levels have been studied in 76 patients following laparoscopic treatment using laparotomy. This shows that early detection of treatment failure is possible of ectopic pregnancy. The decrease of HCG was the same as after conservative treatment from the third or fifth post-operative day onwards. The authors report a scheme for the post-operative follow-up after laparoscopic treatment of ectopic pregnancy based on the rate of HCG decrease.
