Ultrasound-Guided Intracavitary Methotrexate for Cornual (Interstitial) Pregnancy in India: Evidence, Practice Pathways, and Policy Enablers for a Minimally Invasive Approach
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: Background: Cornual (often used interchangeably with interstitial) pregnancy is a rare, high-risk ectopic implantation in the intramural segment of the fallopian tube. It accounts for roughly 2–4% of ectopic pregnancies but carries a disproportionate risk of catastrophic hemorrhage and first-trimester maternal mortality if missed. In India, where maternal mortality continues to fall yet remains heterogeneous across states, early detection and equitable access to fertility-preserving treatments are public-health priorities
