[Endoscopic management of ectopic pregnancy].

Ectopic pregnancy is a common problem usually diagnosed at an early stage and often in an emergency situation. Both medical and surgical treatments can be used for its management. In case of surgical treatment, laparoscopy rather than open surgery must be practiced. Concerning the choice between salpingostomy and salpingectomy, it depends of the controlateral tubal patency. In case of altered controlateral tube, if a sparing surgery is possible it should be preferred. However, this question is still debated if the controlateral tube seems patent.
