MTX i.m. 50 mg/m2, after 4 days if ther is no cardiac activitie you can realise D&C, if there is activity you can give the same dose. After D&C, if there are some bleeding (sometimes but not common) replace the baloon of foley catheter with 30-40 cc in to the cervix for the controle of bleeding. We used uterine arter embolisation in one patient and it's result by the atrophy of the endometrium. Süleyman Akhan M.D.

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
