Splenic Pregnancy: A New Minimally Invasive Approach to Treatment.

Eyal Klang1, Nicholas Keddel2, Yael Inbar2, Uri Rimon2, Michal Amitai2.   

Abstract

The spleen is a rare site of abdominal ectopic pregnancy. In a review of the literature, we found 16 published cases of primary splenic pregnancies. Of the cases identified, all received surgical intervention, with one case successfully treated with laparoscopic methotrexate injection, and the rest underwent splenectomy. We would like to present a case of primary splenic pregnancy in a 35-year-old woman successfully treated with percutaneous image-guided injection of methotrexate and KCl.
