Medical Treatment of Interstitial (Cornual) Ectopic Pregnancy with Methotrexate: A Case Report

Ectopic pregnancy (EP) is a pregnancy outside of uterus and accounts for 1-4% of all pregnancies. The most common risk factors for EP include the use of assisted reproductive techniques and tubular and uterine abnormalities (history of surgery or previous ectopic pregnancy, leiomyoma, endometriosis, history of pelvic infection, etc.). One type of tubal ectopic pregnancy is the interstitial (cornual) type, which is responsible for 1-6% of ectopic pregnancies and 20 % of all deaths caused by them.
