Abstract

Aim: Evaulation of medical teratments and follow-up consequences of 2 abdominal ectopic pregnancies diagnosed by ultrasonography. Case Report: In this case report; treatment and follow-up consequences of 2 abdominal ectopic pregnancy cases which were diagnosed by ultrasonographic examination with complaints of groin pain and vaginal bleeding in second and third trimester of pregnancy were presented. Surgical treatments were applied each of 2 abdominal ectopic pregnancy cases. While in the first abdominal ectopic pregnancy case additional methotrexate therapy was applied to surgical therapy, in the second abdominal ectopic pregnancy case only surgical therapy was applied. Patients were followed-up with serum 6-hCG levels and ultrasonography for residual placental materials in abdominal cavity. Maternal morbidity and mortality were not observed in the following period. Conclusion: Abdominal ectopic pregnancy must be considered in pregnant women with groin pain and vaginal bleeding complaints in ultrasonographic examination because of it's high maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality rates.

Özet

Amaç: Ultrasonografı ile tanısı konulan iki abdominal ektopik gebelik olgusunun tedavi ve takip sonuçlarının değerlendirilmesi. Olgu Sunumu: Bu olgu sunumunda gebeliğinin II. ve III. trimesterinde kasık ağrısı ve vaginal kanama şikayetiyle gelip ultrasonografık inceleme sonrası abdominal ektopik gebelik tanısı alan iki olgunun tedavisi ve takiplerinin sonuçları sunulmuştur. Abdominal ektopik gebelik tanısı alan her iki olguya cerrahi tedavi uygulandı. Birinci olguya cerrahi tedaviye ek olarak methotrexate verilirken diğer olguya sadece cerrahi tedavi uygulandı. Postoperatif dönemde hastalar serum B-hCG seviyesi ve geride kalan plasental materyal açısından ultrasonografı ile takip edildi. Hastaların takipleri sırasında maternal morbidite ve mortalite izlenmedi. Sonuç: Kasık ağrısı ve vajinal kanama şikayetiyle gelen gebelerde ultrasonografık inceleme esnasında maternal- fetal mortalite ve morbiditenin yüksek olması bakımından ayırıcı tanılar arasında abdominal ektopik gebelik de mutlaka düşünülmelidir.
