Can ectopic pregnancy be treated conservatively?

Ectopic pregnancy is a type of ectopic pregnancy, which is extremely harmful to women and can even be life-threatening. The general treatment principle for ectopic pregnancy is surgery, but can it be treated conservatively?

Conservative surgery is suitable for young women who want to have children, especially those whose contralateral fallopian tube has been removed or has obvious lesions. The surgical procedure is selected based on the site of implantation of the fertilized egg and the condition of the fallopian tube lesions. If it is an infundibulum pregnancy, the products of conception can be squeezed out; if it is an ampulla pregnancy, the fallopian tube is opened to remove the embryo and then sutured; if it is an isthmus pregnancy, the diseased segment is resected and end-to-end anastomosis is performed. If the surgery uses microsurgical techniques, the subsequent pregnancy rate can be improved. In addition to laparotomy, conservative surgery can also be performed via laparoscopy.

Ectopic pregnancy can be treated conservatively. In recent years, minimally invasive laparoscopic technology has become increasingly mature and widely used in the field of obstetrics and gynecology, making the treatment of ectopic pregnancy move from "major invasion" to "minimally invasive." It is easier to preserve the fallopian tubes because of its small surgical trauma, less bleeding, short operation time, quick postoperative recovery, short hospitalization time, almost no abdominal scars, less pelvic adhesions, and mild fallopian tube obstruction. Tissue coagulation of the wound surface can prevent the infiltration and deposition of cellulose and significantly improve the patient's quality of life after surgery. Very popular among patients.

Ectopic pregnancy can be treated conservatively. Laparoscopic treatment of ectopic pregnancy uses a cold light source to provide lighting, inserts a laparoscope lens (3-10mm in diameter) into the abdominal cavity, and uses digital camera technology to transmit the image captured by the laparoscope lens through optical fibers to the subsequent signal processing system, and displays it in real time on a dedicated monitor. The doctor then analyzes and determines the patient's condition through images of the patient's organs from different angles displayed on the monitor screen, and uses special laparoscopic instruments to perform surgery. During the operation, only three small holes of 0.5 to 1 cm in size need to be opened in the patient's abdomen. After recovery, only 1-3 linear scars of 0.5-1 cm in size are left in the abdominal cavity, which is only the size of a keyhole. It can be said to be a surgery with small incision and little pain. The development of Stryker laparoscopic surgery has reduced the pain of surgery for patients, shortened their recovery period, and relatively reduced their expenses. The most important thing is that it can effectively preserve the fallopian tubes, with a fallopian tube preservation rate of 95.65%, creating favorable conditions for future childbirth and is very suitable for women who want to have children.
