Abstract

Objective To investigate the value of using transvaginal sonography to diagnose early ectopic pregnancy. Methods The sonography and clinical information of 56 cases with ectopic pregnancy proved by transvaginal sonography were retrospectively analyzed. Results Among the 56 patients proved by transvaginal sonography,54 cases corresponded with the clinical and pathological diagnosis(occupying 96.4%). The rates of both omitting and mistaken diagnoses were 1.8%. Conclusion The transvaginal sonography has an important clinical value for the diagnosis of early ectopic pregnancy which has high rate of definite diagnosis.
