In our department we prefer laparoscopic treatment ectopic pregnancy. In 1999 and 2000 years we were laparoscopically treated 70% ectopic pregnancy. For promtly and safely diagnosis we use clinical, ultrasound and beta choriongonadotropine hormon examination. In this period we treated 26 women with diagnosis of ectopic pregnancy. In 96% patients ultrasound examination was made. Ultrasound examination showed in 88% women adnexal masses or free fluid in Douglas space. In most cases ectopic pregnancy was in right tube (69%). Ultrasound evaluation in correlation with beta choriongonadotropin hormone creates early and safely diagnosis ectopic pregnancy and provides laparoscopic approach. Laparoscopic approach in treatment ectopic pregnancy is method of choice.
