Patient's question:
Last month, I went to the hospital for a thorough check-up because of stomach pain. The doctor said it was an ectopic pregnancy. Hello, what is the entire process of an open surgery for ectopic pregnancy?Doctor's answer:
If ectopic pregnancy requires an abdominal surgery, it is usually necessary to remove that segment of the fallopian tube. For example, if the embryo grows and develops at the fimbriae of the fallopian tube, then that segment of the tube needs to be removed. Therefore, patients who undergo these types of surgeries generally have a significantly reduced chance of giving birth. After the surgery, it is also important to pay attention to adjusting their mentality and to rest more. The above suggestions can be used as a reference.
