European Surgery in Ectopic Pregnancy(ESEP) study Salpingo(s)tomy vs salpingectomyimpact on future fertility
1993-1996, the Netherlands 5 centers, n = 100 Primary outcome: elimination of tubal pregnancy (hCG < 2 IU/L) and preservation of the tube by primary treatment Secondary outcomes: Spontaneous IUP Repeat EP Quality of Life Patients preference Costs BackgroundRCT systemic MTX vs salpingo(s)tomy Inclusion: laparoscopically confirmed unruptured tubal pregnancy randomisation Multiple dose MTX im Salpingo(s)tomy MTX - systemic methotrexate (four 1.0 mg/kg doses of intramuscular methotrexate alternated with 0.1 mg/kg oral folinic acid)
ConclusionsMTX vs salpingo(s)tomy • Both treatments were equally effective • Fertility after MTX was not improved • MTX had more negative impact on Quality of Life • MTX is only cost-effective in patients with serum hCG < 3,000IU/l in a non invasive strategy Surgery: primary intervention Reference Hajenius et al Lancet 1997, Nieuwkerk et al Fertil Steril 1998, Mol et al Am J Obstet Gynecol 1999
Surgery for tubal pregnancysalpingo(s)tomy or salpingectomy? Review 1996 • No difference for IUP • Salpingostomy: more repeat EP, more persistent trophoblast No advantage for salpingostomy However? ….. did not take into account: • Wish to conceive • Time to IUP • Spontaneous conception vs IVF-ET Reference: Clausen et al, Acta Obstet Gynecol. Scand 1996
Salpingo(s)tomy or salpingectomy?retrospective cohort study 1988 AZG en AMC • salpingo(s)tomy n = 56 • salpingectomy n = 79 FRR IUP: 1.9 (0.91-3.8) • no tubal pathology 1.4 (0.68-2.7) • bilateral tubal pathology 3.1 (0.76-12) FRR repeat EP 2.4 (0.57-11) Persistent trophoblast 7% Reference: BW Mol et al Hum Reprod 1998
Pros: Shorter time to IUP More spontaneous IUP Cons: Risk repeat EP Persistent trophoblast ESEP study salpingo(s)tomy vs salpingectomy in tubal EP with a normal contra lateral tube ? ESEP!
