Abstract

Cornual ectopic pregnancy is a rare variant of ectopic pregnancy which requires high index of clinical suspicion and radiological support to manage. The incidence of interstitial pregnancy is rising. Traditional treatment with laparotomy, is associated with high morbidity and detrimental effects on future fertility.
