Conservative Laparoscopic Approach for the Management of a 14-Week Viable Ectopic Cesarean Scar Ectopic Pregnancy.

Introduction: Cesarean scar ectopic pregnancy (CSEP) is a rare gynecological disorder that occurs at a rate of approximately 0.05% of pregnancies and less than 0.2% of cesarean scars. The ultimate goal in the management of CSEP cases is to remove pregnancy and reduce morbidity while preserving fertility. This case report highlights the successful application of a conservative laparoscopic approach in managing a 14-week viable CSEP. Case Presentation: A 35-year-old multiparous woman (G8P5A2L5) with five previous cesarean sections and five normal healthy children presented to the clinic with a viable CSEP of 14 weeks of gestation as revealed by abdominal and transvaginal ultrasound examination. The decision for a conservative laparoscopic approach was made in light of the patient's desire to preserve fertility. Intervention and outcome: The laparoscopic procedure included the following steps: extensive dissection of adhesions between the bladder and the uterus; identification of the ectopic pregnancy at the level of the lower segment; extraction of the product of conception in an endobag; and suturing of the lower segment defect. The successful execution of these steps resulted in the removal of the ectopic pregnancy while addressing associated structural concerns. This approach allowed for mitigating morbidity and, importantly, preserving the patient's fertility. Conclusion: This case highlights the importance of a conservative laparoscopic approach for CSEP in the second trimester. Imaging techniques play a pivotal role in accurate diagnosis, with minimally invasive technologies offering effective solutions. Individualized, patient-centered approaches are necessary to prioritize clinical outcomes and patient preferences.
