Abstract

Objective: Ectopic pregnancy adversely affects the patency of the fallopian tube & consequently the future pregnancy. There are different modalities of conservative treatment
of tubal pregnancy as methotrexate and salpingostomy1. There is little information about
the success rate of maintenance of tubal patency after methotrexate & salpingostomy2.
Therefore, the aim of this study is to evaluate the ipsilateral tubal patency by using hysterosalpingography, after treatment of tubal pregnancy by methotrexate therapy versus
salpingostomy.
