Abstract

Background: Ectopic pregnancy is defined as when gestational sac implants itself outside the uterine cavity in the fallopian tubes, ovary, cervix, and peritoneum. Ectopic pregnancy is one of the commonest acute abdominal emergencies a gynaecologist has to meet  in his day to day practice. It is also a matter of great concern that a woman might have to face any time during her childbearing period. It not only threatens the life if not treated timely and effectively but also
tells upon her future fertility unavoidably by causing mutilation of an essential organ of reproduction, namely the fallopian tube with or without ovary and sometimes even the uterus.
