Pregnancy outside of the uterus
Definition: embryo attaches outside the uterus
Most commonly occur in the ampulla of fallopian tube, but can occur in other parts of tube, ovary, cervix, myometrium or within the abdomen
Ectopic embryos can grow and create pressure or invade surrounding tissues

Symptoms:

Symptoms of pregnancy: nausea, vomiting, urination, fatigue, breast tenderness

Destruction / rupture of fallopian tubes:
Rupture: abdominal distention, generalized tenderness, peritonitis, and hypovolemic shock (low BP, high HR, feeling cold)

A "blob sign", which consists of the ectopic pregnancy. The ovary is distinguished from it by having follicles, whereof one is visible in the field. This patient had an intrauterine device (IUD) with progestogen, whose cross-section is visible in the field, leaving an ultrasound shadow distally to it.

Perform transabdominal/transvaginal ultrasound:
↪ If intrauterine gestational sac present in uterus → not ectopic pregnancy
↪ If gestational sac present elsewhere (ring of fire with color Doppler d/t increased vascular flow to adnexa) → ectopic pregnancy
↪ If no gestational sac seen, perform quantitative serum hCG:
↪ If serum hCG 1500-2000 → treat like ectopic pregnancy (should be able to see intrauterine pregnancy)
↪ If serum hCG 1500-2000 → too soon to tell → perform serial hCG:
↪ Repeat hCG in 48 hours:
↪ If hCG doubles → intrauterine pregnancy → routine care, evaluate other causes of symptoms
↪ If hCG fails to double → ectopic pregnancy
Ruptured ectopic pregnancy:
Stabilize with fluids, blood, pressors
OR for salpingectomy (remove tube)
Unruptured ectopic pregnancy:
Stabilize, OR for salpingostomy (unblock tube)
If hCG 3000, gestational size 3.5 cm, no fetal heart tones
Medical management: methotrexate +/- leucovorin
