Abstract:
A persistent serum titer of beta-hCG 4 weeks after laparoscopic removal of an intratubal pregnancy may be due to PEP (1 case) and/or peritoneal trophoblastic tissue implants (2 cases). In these three patients, a second laparoscopy detected the cause of the elevated hormonal levels and enabled therapy to be carried out at the same time.
