Abstract | OBJECTIVE: STUDY DESIGN: RESULTS: Mean patient age and gestational age was 33.5 years and 6.7 weeks, respectively. Mean blood loss was 24 mL. The mean serum human chorionic gonadotropin level was 10,950, 4065, and 959 mIU/mL on the day of operation and postoperative days 1 and 4, respectively. CONCLUSION: Laparoscopic management of interstitial pregnancy using a large amount of highly diluted vasopressin is safe and effective in hemostasis with minimal blood loss and no complications.
