title: [Conservative management of cervical ectopic pregnancy].
abstract: BACKGROUND
  Cervical ectopic pregnancy is a rare type of ectopic pregnancy (less than one percent of all ectopic pregnancies).
  
  
  OBJECTIVE
  Assess the efficacy of the treatment options available.
  
  
  METHODS
  Retrospective study of the cervical ectopic pregnancies treated in our hospital from January 2005 to December 2011.
  
  
  RESULTS
  Three patients were diagnosed cervical ectopic pregnancy in our hospital during that period, that is, an incidence of 1.7 per 10,000 gestations. The main symptom was a moderate-to-severe genital hemorrhage. In two of the cases a single dose of 50 mg/cm2 methotrexate was administered, and in the third one, curettage and uterine arterial embolization were performed. Histerectomy was not necessary in either of the cases.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Conservative management of cervical ectopic pregnancy is an effective and safe option.
