[Hysteroscopic treatment of tubal pregnancy by intratubal injection of methotrexate].
The treatment of 3 non-ruptured tubal pregnancies by hysteroscopic intratubal injection of methotrexate was reported. In all 3 cases the beta-hCG serum levels decreased after injection during clinical, serological and sonographical control. In 2 patients the tubes were patent at a later control. In selected cases the intratubal administration of methotrexate via hysteroscopy is an alternative minimal invasive treatment.
