Abstract

Objective: Predictive factors of damage to the Fallopian tube may guide the treatment for patients with tubal pregnancy The purpose of this study was to evaluate the predictive value of ultrasonographic findings in patients affected by ampullary pregnancy for the determination of the depth of trophoblastic infiltration into the tubal wall on histological examination.
