Overview

abstract

  • OBJECTIVE: To describe the case of ectopic pregnancy in the scar after caesarean section and its successful treatment using the technique of sonographically controlled vacuum aspiration. CASE REPORT: The case of a 35-year-old patient with a history of two caesarean sections referred by a district gynecologist in the 6th week of pregnancy with suspected pathological localization of pregnancy in a scar after a previous caesarean section. The procedure for the diagnosis and treatment of ectopic pregnancy in the scar after previous caesarean sections has been successfully resolved using sonographically controlled vaginal vacuum aspiration. CONCLUSION: Caesarean scar pregnancy occurs as a complication of previous caesarean section or other uterine instrumental performances. The use of the sonographically controlled vacuum aspiration technique appears to be a successful method of treating pregnancy in a scar after a caesarean section.
