Proximal occlusion of salpinx by placing microcoil under X-ray brought a successful uterine pregnancy for a repeated ectopic pregnancy patient.

Introduction: This article provides a new method to avoid recurrent ectopic pregnancy during IVF-ET treatment in women who underwent bilateral salpingectomy.

Materials And Methods: A Chinese woman who underwent bilateral salpingectomy because of previous ectopic pregnancy sought IVF-ET therapy. She got two continuous salpingocyesis in fresh cycle and frozen cycle and received conservative therapy. We suggested her to undergo the laparoscopy to find the reason of repeated ectopic pregnancy. The patient declined due to economy and fear of operation. HSG showed that the length of the left and right salpinx was 3 and 4 cm, respectively. She received microcoil device under the X-ray guidance to induce proximal occlusion of the salpinx. Another FET was performed 3 months after this intervention and she succeeded this time and delivered a healthy infant finally.

Conclusion: The proximal occlusion of the salpinx by microcoil device can be used to avoid ectopic pregnancy again during IVF-ET treatment in women who underwent bilateral salpingectomy.
