Also the therapeutic procedures of ectopic pregnancies and developement of heterotopic pregnancies were analysed.
Results:
In the follow-up file the numbers of ectopic pregnancies was 84 from 1487 (5.65%) clinical pregnancies. Heterotopic pregnancy occured in seven cases (0.47%). Both ectopic and heterotopic pregnancy rate is higher than in a common population. From the seven heterotopic pregnancies two resulted in the delivery of the intrauterine pregnancy. From the total number of 84 ectopic pregnancies 68 (88.10%) resulted in laparoscpic salpingectomy as the therapy, only nine of them (11.90%) were treated conservatively with the tube preservation.
