ABSTRACT & COMMENTARY

Evaluating the Effectiveness of Treatment Strategies for Managing Cesarean Scar Ectopic Pregnancies

A review of 460 international cases of cesarean scar pregnancies demonstrated that surgical treatments were extremely effective options, with successful completion in 91.5% (95% confidence interval [CI], 87.8 to 95.2) of suction evacuations and 91.8% (95% CI, 83.8 to 99.9) of surgical excisions compared with a lower success rate for medical options, including local gestational sac injection or systemic methotrexate.
