    "abstract": "To report two cases of women who presented with amenorrhea, lower abdominal pain, and vaginal bleeding and who were diagnosed with advanced interstitial pregnancy after initial negative laparoscopies.\nCase report.\nEarly pregnancy unit of district general hospital.\nA 39-year-old woman with a history of right salpingectomy for ectopic pregnancy and a 28-year-old woman with a history of miscarriage.\nLaparoscopic salpingocentesis with methotrexate (50 mg/m(2)) after aspiration of an equivalent amount of amniotic fluid. The remainder, based on the calculated dose, was given intramuscularly. Oral mifepristone (200 mg) was given postoperatively.\nComplete resolution of interstitial pregnancy in both instances with two subsequent, successful intrauterine pregnancies delivered at term in the second patient. There were no intraoperative or postoperative complications.\nExpected decline in beta human chorionic gonadotropin (beta-hCG) levels without the need for any further intervention(s).\nInterstitial pregnancy may be successfully and safely managed by the use of laparoscopic salpingocentesis with methotrexate and mifepristone despite high initial beta-hCG levels.",
