| Povzetek: | Background and Clinical Significance: Cervical ectopic pregnancy (CEP) is a rare and potentially serious condition, in which the embryo implants within the cervical canal rather than the uterine cavity and is present in less than 1% of all ectopic pregnancies. There are different treatment options depending on the particular situation and the woman’s reproductive desire but conservative approaches as the first line of treatment is preferred in all cases and hysteroscopic resection of the fetus is one of these options. Several types of laser systems are available for use in hysteroscopic surgery, including neodymium:YAG (Nd:YAG) lasers, KTP and Argon lasers, as well as diode lasers. The holmium:YAG (Ho:YAG) laser, although more commonly used in urology due to its ability to cut, coagulate, and vaporize tissue, has gained interest in gynecologic procedures because of its precision and favorable safety profile. Case Presentation: We present the case of a 32-year-old woman, pregnant for the first time, who was diagnosed with CEP and successfully treated using a Ho:YAG laser during an outpatient hysteroscopic procedure. As far as we know, this is the first published case using this approach. Conclusions: The Ho:YAG laser is a proven tool for outpatient hysteroscopic procedures like septum and adhesion removal. Its ability to both cut and coagulate offers a minimally invasive, fertility-sparing option for managing cervical ectopic pregnancy. With the right patient and proper backup plans in place, this approach could be a promising alternative to more aggressive treatments. |
