BackgroundThis study aims to evaluate the curative effect and complications in cesarean scar pregnancy (CSP) patients treated with a transvaginal injection of absolute ethanol (AE) around the gestation sac (GS) under ultrasound guidance.MethodsThis retrospective clinical investigation analyzed 26 CSP patients treated at the Affiliated Hospital of Guilin Medical University in Guilin, Guangxi, China, between January 1, 2018 and January 30, 2019. Outcomes and complications were analyzed following treatment with AE.ResultsOut of the entire group, 20 patients were successfully treated with a single AE injection, while the remaining six patients required two or three repeat injections. In 21 patients, the serum beta-human chorionic gonadotropin (beta -hCG) level was reduced to >50% 1day after a single AE injection; in 19 patients, the serum beta -hCG level was reduced to >80% 4days after a single AE injection. In all patients, the average time for serum beta -hCG to reduce to normal levels (
