“…Second, the management of interstitial ectopic pregnancy is varied. 8 Therefore, more studies are needed to compare the outcomes and complications of different treatment options, such as medical therapy, conservative surgery, or radical surgery. Furthermore, the long-term reproductive prognosis of women with unicornuate uterus and interstitial ectopic pregnancy is unknown, and the risk of recurrence and adverse pregnancy outcomes should be evaluated in future research.…”

“…Serum beta-human chorionic gonadotropin (β-hCG) was measured at 4069 mIU/ml. Prior to surgery, the patient underwent a 3D TVUS using the Samsung HERA W10 color Doppler ultrasound system and an EV3-10B intracavitary probe (3)(4)(5)(6)(7)(8)(9)(10). For the examination, the patient, a pregnant woman, was advised to empty her bladder and adopt the lithotomy position.…”

A rare case of unicornuate uterus with interstitial ectopic pregnancy was diagnosed using three‐dimensional transvaginal ultrasound (3D‐TVUS). The ultrasound revealed a “lancet‐shaped” endometrial corona, a gestational sac near the uterus base extending toward the uterine serosa, and visible interstitial lines. The patient underwent laparoscopic surgery for a lesion in the right fallopian tube. 3D‐TVUS was crucial in precisely locating the gestational sac, aiding in effective treatment. Interstitial ectopic pregnancies risk severe hemorrhaging upon rupture. Rapid, accurate diagnosis is vital for lifesaving treatment and preventing critical complications.
