Abstract:
We report the successful management of a 31-year-old female, treated by cornual wedge resection. The patient suffered from vaginal spotting and lower abdominal pain. Transvaginal ultrasonography revealed a 4-5 cm right cornual pregnancy and beta-human chorionic gonadotropin was measured to be 614.7 IU/L. This ectopic pregnancy was removed via a laparotomy with cornual wedge resection and right salpingectomy.
