Abstract
Objective:To evaluate the value of color Doppler transvaginal ultrasonography in the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of ectopic pregnancy in previous cesarean section scar.Methods:From 2004 to 2009,32 cases of cesarean scar pregnancy who underwent ultrasonic examination and treat in our hospital were retrospectively studied;the accuracy of color Doppler transvaginal ultrasound and B-scan or color Doppler transabdominal ultrasound in the diagnosis of ectopic pregnancy in previous cesarean section scar were compared.Results:The ultrasonic images of cesarean cicatrix pregnancy were summarized,all images were divided into two types: gestation cyst type(14 cases) and mass type(18 cases);the accuracy of color Doppler transvaginal ultrasound was higher than that of B-scan or color Doppler transabdominal ultrasound in the diagnosis of gestation cyst type(P0.05).Conclusion:The color Doppler transvaginal ultrasound is highly valuable in the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of ectopic pregnancy in previous cesarean section scar.
