Abstract:
Cervical pregnancy is very uncommon and carries a high risk for hysterectomy with surgical treatment. Prior reports of medical treatment included various regimens of high-dose systemic methotrexate (MTX) with citrovorum rescue and local injection. This is the first report of successfully treating a viable cervical pregnancy with single-dose i.m. MTX, followed by a vaginal delivery.
