Abstract:
BACKGROUND:Cesarean scar pregnancy (CSP) is a very rare but life-threatening entity and there is no optimal management strategy. Here we report a successfully conservative treatment of CSP. METHODS:We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 54 women with CSP, who underwent uterine artery embolization between January 2007 and September 2012 at the Peking University People's Hospital. We evaluated the clinical outcomes, the technique and the complications of uterine artery embolization. RESULTS:Of the 54 patients, 2 patients with hemorrhage after induced abortion received bilateral uterine artery embolization treatment alone, and 52 patients underwent suction curettage after bilateral uterine artery embolization. All 54 women were successfully cured, without any severe complications, and uterine function was restored. During the follow-up, one patient had accidental normal interuterine pregnancy and received induced abortion during the first trimester. CONCLUSION:[corrected] Uterine artery embolization combined with suction curettage is an effective and safe conservative treatment for cesarean scar pregnancy.
