title: Intramural ectopic pregnancy: treatment using uterine artery embolization.
abstract: Herein is described the case of a 28-year-old woman in whom uterine artery embolization (UAE) was performed to treat intramural ectopic pregnancy. The intramural ectopic pregnancy was diagnosed at magnetic resonance imaging, which showed a gestational sac surrounded completely by myometrium. The UAE procedure was uncomplicated, with satisfactory results. Intramural ectopic pregnancy may be treated using UAE, which aids in maintaining fertility.
