Objective:To observe the clinical efficacy of vascular intervention in the treatment of uterine scar pregnancy after cesarean section .Methods:A total of 50 patients with uterine scar pregnancy after cesarean section were selected and randomly divided into observation group and control group ,with 25 patients in each group .The patients in the control group were treated with dilatation and curettage , while the patients in the observation group were treated with uterine artery embolization combined with curettage with methotrexate .After treatment ,the clinical efficacy ,the blood loss ,the time of serum β‐human chorionic gonadotropin (β‐HCG) returning to normal level ,the time of endo‐uterine mass disappearing ,the patient's hospital stay and adverse effects ,were compared between the patients in the two groups .Results:The cure rate of patients in the observation group (100% ) was significantly higher than that (64% ) in the control group(P<0 .05);the blood loss (47 .1 ± 14 .2)mL ,the time of endo‐uterine mass disappearing (23 .6 ± 23 .7) d and hospital stay (13 .2 ± 4 .3) d of patients in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group [(322 .1 ± 105 .2) mL ,(80 .4 ± 78 .3) d ,(20 .1 ± 7 . 8)d ,P<0 .05)];there was no occurrence of severe complications in the two groups .Conclusions:Vascular intervention in the treatment of uterine scar pregnancy after cesarean section can effectively kill the embryo tissues ,reduce the blood loss ,and retaln the womb as well as the fertility .
