The authors presented a case of a 30-year tertigravidar women with unrecognized cervical pregnancy, treated by suction curettage and cervicovaginal tamponade. In our case of unrecognized cervical pregnancy, during hysterometry and cervical dilatation occured uterine bleeding and clinical pictures of obstetrics hemorrhagic shock, so we continued with suction curettage and cervicovaginal tamponade as a urgent procedure which turned out as a final. Medicamentous chemotherapy of the cervical pregnancy (methotrexat) was not used, because after described procedure beta-HCG lytic decreased and without colour-Doppler visualization of local cervical trophoblastic vascularisation.
