title: A cervical ectopic pregnancy managed by medical treatment and angiographic embolization.
abstract: Medical treatment in the form of systemic methotrexate with or without local methotrexate/potassium chloride is effective for early cervical pregnancy. It should be the treatment of choice in suitable cases. Haemorrhagic complications can be effectively managed by angiographic embolization. A case report illustrating these points is presented.
