ABSTRACT

Cervical ectopic pregnancy is extremely rare, approximately less than 1% of all ectopic pregnancies. Its etiology is not clear yet. However, there are reports of associations with chromosomal abnormalities and a history of damaging procedures such as endometrial tissue incision cesarean section, intrauterine procedures and fertilization in vitro. We describe the case of a 34-yearold woman, who has vaginal bleeding and 8.6 weeks pregnant with abnormal implantation within the endocervical canal and embryonic life which gives expectant management without success.
