Annotation. A review of the scientific literature on the problem of diagnosis and modern methods of treatment of cervical pregnancy is presented. Ectopic pregnancy (ectopic pregnancy) is a condition in which the implantation and development of a fertilized egg takes place outside the uterine cavity and is one of the threatening conditions for life and reproductive health of women. Cases of cervical pregnancy occur with a frequency between 1:8 600 and 1:12 400 cases of the total number of all pregnancies and less than 1% of the number of ectopic pregnancies. Suspicion of a diagnosis of “cervical pregnancy” is an indication for immediate hospitalization of the woman in a gynecological hospital, a thorough examination and selection of treatment, because this pathology can provoke massive bleeding in the first trimester of pregnancy. In the practice of obstetrician-gynecologist for a long time there was one method of treatment of this pathology – extirpation of the uterus. To date, there are conservative and surgical treatments, that we will cover in this article. We conducted a systematic review and analysis of relevant literature sources, which have been published in the vast majority over the past 10 years (2012-2022), on modern methods of diagnosis and treatment of cervical pregnancy. The search was conducted in search databases PubMed, Google Scholar, Cochrane Library, Web of Science. The following search terms were used in the work: “cervical pregnancy”, “ectopic pregnancy”. It was found that the problem of treatment of cervical pregnancy remains relevant today, because there is no clear opinion on the best method of treatment. The decision to use one or another method is left to the attending physician, who must adequately assess the patient's condition, obstetric situation and possible options for prescribing appropriate treatment, the available methods were justified.
