Nontubal ectopic pregnancy and cesarean section scar pregnancy are relatively uncommon but dangerous events. Early diagnosis and treatment by reproductive endocrinologists are crucial.
Nontubal ectopic pregnancy ( NTEP) and cesarean section scar pregnancy ( CCSP) are a relatively uncommon but potentially very dangerous conception event. If diagnosed early, they can be treated very effectively. Cesarean section scar ectopic is unique in that expectant management may allow them to persist longer, but with overwhelmingly catastrophic consequences. Reproductive endocrinologists are uniquely positioned to diagnose and treat NTEP/CCSP early, thereby avoiding long-term catastrophic consequences. (Fertil Steril((R)) 2023;120:551- 2.
