CERVICAL PREGNANCY-A RARE CASE REPORT
Abstract
Cervical pregnancy is one of the most
dangerous forms of ectopic pregnancy.
The incidence is increasing and it should
be included in the differential diagnosis
of vaginal bleeding in the first trimester.
We report a case of cervical ectopic
pregnancy from our institution. A 37
years old G2 P1 L1, a case of previous
caesarean section was admitted with two
months amenorrhoea and spotting per
vaginum. She was found to have ectopic
in cervical canal and was managed with
emergency hysterectomy. Included in
this case report are discussions of incidence,
causes, current concepts in the
diagnosis and management of cervical
pregnancy.
