Abstract
The prevalence of ectopic pregnancy and the risk of mortality from ectopic pregnancy have decreased by 90% in recent years. Therefore, it is of interest to evaluate the use of ultra-sonography and clinical evaluation in diagnosing ectopic pregnancy. Hence, 93 patients were assessed using ultrasonography and clinical aspects. Data shows that majority of patients showed hemo-peritoneum with 73 cases (78.5%) using ultrasonography and abdominal tenderness with 80 cases (86.0%) using clinical evaluation. However, a few patients experienced post-surgical complications like infection.
Keywords
