Abstract

Background

Several risk factors for ectopic pregnancy (EP) have been identified, but the site of implantation of EP has been little studied.

Methods

A total of 1800 surgically treated EP was registered between January 1992 and December 2001 in the Auvergne EP register and the women concerned were followed up. In this large population-based sample, we studied the distribution of EP sites, immediate complications, determining factors, and subsequent fertility.
