Description
Hossein Hemmati and co-authors report a 2025 journal article on a womb artery blocking treatment for two rare ectopic pregnancies. Pregnancies in the cervix or in a cesarean scar can bleed heavily, and saving the uterus matters. The team reviewed one year of cases at a single referral center treated with GELFOAM embolization.
Among 41 patients, the uterus was saved in 40, a success rate of 97.6 percent. No procedure-specific complications occurred, and one patient developed a blood collection after surgery. The single failure came in a late-arriving case and needed surgery. The authors call for larger studies with longer follow-up.
