Cervical pregnancy management by lauromacrogol combined with intrauterine visualization system and vacuum aspiration: two case studies

Abstract

Background: Timely and effective intervention can avoid the need for hysterectomy in cervical pregnancy. This study reported 2 cervical pregnancy cases treated with lauromacrogol combined with intrauterine visualization system and vacuum aspiration under direct vision and negative pressure suction. Cases: A 33-year-old (para 0-0-2-0) and 26-year-old females (para 1-0-1-1) were admitted to our hospital for amenorrhoea followed by vaginal bleeding, with previous history of laparoscopic salpingectomy for ectopic pregnancy, and cesarean section and hysteroscopic resection of retained placenta after induced abortion, respectively. Both patients were treated with lauromacrogol combined with intrauterine visualization system and vacuum aspiration along with Foley catheter compression. Both surgeries were completed in one go. The effect was significant, safe, feasible, with no massive vaginal bleeding or complications. The serum hCG decreased rapidly, and the length of hospital stay was short. Conclusions: This combined treatment method has a definitive effect, and the application can be promoted clinically.
