Abstract:
Intramural pregnancy is one of the rare forms of ectopic pregnancy and the optimal treatment is unknown. We describe two cases of intramural pregnancy treated with systemic methotrexate, which were diagnosed by pelvic MRI. Medical treatment with methotrexate may be a conservative treatment alternative for intramural pregnancies.
