摘要
Objectives. -To make a literature analyse about methotrexate as a treatment of tubal ectopic pregnancy. Materials and methods. -We made a PubMed research and found articles, randomized control studies, systematic revues and meta-analyses of the Cochrane Database about ectopic pregnancies treated by methotrexate. We made a summary of these articles. Results. -Methotrexate can be used as a treatment of tubal ectopic pregnancy with hCG <5000 Ul /L and expectative is an option if hCG level is lower than 1500 Ul /L. Medical treatment by rnethotrexate seems to be less effective than surgical salpingotomy but the rate of recurrence and the rate of intra-uterin pregnancy are similar regardless of the treatment chosen. Fertility seems to be the same after treatment by methotrexate. Economically, methotrexate is less expensive than the surgical management (laparoscopy). Conclusion. -Methotrexate can be used as a treatment of tubal ectopic pregnancies if every criterions of safety are gathered. (C) 2015 Elsevier Masson SAS. All rights reserved.
