given intramuscularly in a dose of 50 mg per square meter of bodysurface area. Clinical observation, ultrasound examination were performed and serum chorionic gonadotropin was measured until the level was less than 15 IU/L. The patient required multiple-dose protocol. Time to resolution was 21 days. Conclusion. Small size of ectopic pregnancy after ART and a chance of its atypical localization may often complicate laparoscopic treatment of this condition and, therefore, emphasize the value of ultrasound diagnosis and medical management option.
