RESEARCH QUESTION: What are the main risk factors associated with ectopic pregnancy and what is the true incidence of ectopic pregnancies in an IVF programme?
DESIGN: Retrospective single-centre study of 12,429 blastocyst transfers (8182 fresh and 4247 frozen embryo transfers) conducted between January 2010 and December 2017. IVF outcome was analysed, and ectopic pregnancy risk evaluated according to patient's characteristics and assisted reproductive technology treatment factors.
RESULTS: Of 5061 patients reporting a positive pregnancy test, 43 were diagnosed with ectopic pregnancy (0.85%). Neither female age (36.7 versus 35.8 years), body mass index, quality of transfer nor stimulation protocol affected the ectopic pregnancy rate, but history of previous ectopic pregnancy (OR 3.26; P = 0.0080), tubal surgery, or both (OR 6.20; P < 0.0001) did. The incidence of ectopic pregnancy was increased in women with uterine malformations (OR 3.85; P = 0.0052), uterine pathologies (OR 5.35; P = 0.0001), uterine surgeries (OR 2.29; P = 0.0154) or sub-optimal endometrial build-up (OR 4.46 to 5.31; P < 0.0001). Transfer of slow-developing blastocysts (expressed by expansion) significantly increased the risk of ectopic pregnancy (OR 2.59; P = 0.0102).
CONCLUSIONS: Unfavourable uterine environment, including uterine pathologies, uterine or tubal surgery and suboptimal endometrial build-up were related to ectopic pregnancy. Low expansion grade of blastocysts was identified as an additional putative risk factor for ectopic pregnancy, indicating the importance of proper embryonal-maternal synchronization. The overall ectopic pregnancy rate after blastocyst transfer was low, comparable with reported ectopic pregnancy rates in spontaneous conceptions. Proper evaluation of tubal and uterine pathologies, optimizing endometrial preparation and the transfer of expanded blastocysts in a frozen embryo transfer cycle, might be beneficial.
