Utero-tubal Embryo Transfer and Vasectomy in the Mouse Model
Published on: February 28, 2014
Abstract:
Fifty cases of excised tubal pregnancy which occurred in the Igbos of Nigeria are reviewed. Twenty percent of the tubes were unruptured at the time of excision, indicating a high level of awareness of the condition among local doctors. There were several pointers to the conclusion that, in this ethnic group, tubal pregnancy tends to be seen at an advanced stage. It also tends to occur in the younger women, to manifest during the first known pregnancy, to recur, and to be associated with salpingitis. Interstitial tubal pregnancy is also probably relatively common.
