Servikal gebeliğin erken tanınması ve tedavisi hayat kurtarıcı olduğu kadar fertilitenin korunması açısından da önemlidir. Bu olguda fertilite korunarak,  konservatif tedavi yöntemi olan sistemik MTX tedavisi esnasında gelişen vajinal kanamayı durdurmak için invaziv girişimler yapılmadan servikal küretaj ile etkin bir şekilde kontrol altına alınan servikal ektopik gebelik olgusu literatür eşliğinde sunulmuştur.
