Abstract

Current management of cesarean scar pregnancy is conservative and consists of medical treatment with methotrexate (MTX). We present a report on a woman with this type of pregnancy who had continuous vaginal bleeding and persistent serum levels of β human chorionic gonadotropin after undergoing curettage and MTX. Eventually, the remaining ectopic gestational tissue was removed by operative hysteroscopy.
