“…It is diagnosed using a transvaginal ultrasound demonstrating the placenta and entire chorionic sac containing the pregnancy below the internal cervical os and can be distinguished from a spontaneous abortion in process by the presence of embryonic cardiac activity or presence of a rich vascular pattern around the GS [ 3 ]. Presenting symptoms generally include vaginal bleeding and can be coupled with abdominal pain, particularly in more advanced GAs [ 4 ]. The etiology of a cervical pregnancy is unknown; however, risk factors associated with increased incidence include prior uterine curettage, Asherman's syndrome, induced abortion, in vitro fertilization, presence of leiomyomas, presence of intrauterine device, and prior cesarean section [ 5 , 6 ].…”

“…Sonography has made the early diagnosis of cervical pregnancy possible (4) and has replaced histologic diagnosis (97). Transvaginal ultrasound has been able to identify a cervical pregnancy as early as 7 weeks (76) and abdominal ultrasound as late as 28 weeks (32 Magnetic Resonance Imaging may be useful in distinguishing between a cervical and cervico-isthmic pregnancy if available (73,92).…”
