Ektopik Gebelik
Özet
Ektopik gebelik, gebelik kesesinin endometrium dışında implantasyonu olup, gebelik kaynaklı anne ölümlerinin %4'ünü oluşturur. Vakaların %96'sı tubalarda görülür, ancak overyan, sezaryen skarı veya abdominal yerleşimler de mevcuttur. En sık klinik prezentasyon ilk trimester kanaması ve abdominal ağrıdır; tanıda transvajinal ultrasonografi ve seri hCG ölçümleri kullanılır. Serum progesteron düzeyleri ve uterin aspirasyon da ayırıcı tanıda yardımcı geleneksel yöntemler arasındadır. Tedavi yönetimi hastanın hemodinamik stabilitesine ve tanı kriterlerine göre izlem, medikal tedavi (metotreksat) veya cerrahi (salpingostomi/salpenjektomi) seçeneklerini içerir. Asemptomatik ve düşük hCG'li hastalarda yakın izlem tercih edilebilirken; hemodinamisi stabil, belirli kriterleri karşılayan hastalar folik asit antagonisti olan metotreksat ile tedavi edilebilir. Hemodinamik instabilite, rüptür veya medikal tedavi başarısızlığı durumunda ise cerrahi tedavi (laparoskopi veya laparotomi) kaçınılmazdır. Salpingostomi sonraki gebelik oranını artırırken, salpenjektomiye göre rekürrens riskini yükseltir.
Ectopic pregnancy is the implantation of the gestational sac outside the endometrium, accounting for 4% of pregnancy-related maternal mortality. While 96% of cases occur in the fallopian tubes, ovarian, cesarean scar, or abdominal implantations are also observed. The most common clinical presentation includes first-trimester bleeding and abdominal pain, with transvaginal ultrasonography and serial hCG measurements utilized for diagnosis. Serum progesterone levels and uterine aspiration serve as additional conventional diagnostic tools. Treatment management encompasses expectant management, medical treatment (methotrexate), or surgical intervention (salpingostomy/salpingectomy) based on the patient's hemodynamic stability and specific criteria. Close monitoring can be preferred for asymptomatic patients with low hCG levels, whereas hemodynamically stable patients meeting designated criteria are candidates for methotrexate, a folic acid antagonist. Surgical treatment via laparoscopy or laparotomy is mandatory in cases of hemodynamic instability, rupture, or medical treatment failure. Salpingostomy increases subsequent pregnancy rates compared to salpingectomy but carries a higher risk of recurrence.
