Description
[edit]Four criteria for differentiating ovarian from other ectopic pregnancies:
- The gestational sac is located in the region of the ovary.
- The ectopic pregnancy is attached to the uterus by the ovarian ligament.
- Ovarian tissue in the wall of the gestational sac is proved histologically.
- The tube on the involved side is intact.
