1999
A 32 year old woman, gravid 1, nulliparous, was admitted to our department at 11 weeks and 2 days of gestation after being diagnosed with cervical pregnancy. She was unsuccessfully treated with methotrexate for 5 days. On the fifth day after admission she underwent bilateral uterine artery angiographic embolization followed by vacuum evacuation and curettage of the cervical canal. A Foley catheter was also inserted in the cervical canal and left in place for 4 days. The patient was discharged in good condition on the seventh postoperative day.
