What does cervical curettage mean?

Endocervical curettage is one of the most common gynecological surgeries, mainly used to treat cervical ectopic pregnancy. This surgical treatment is suitable for patients with cervical ectopic pregnancy in the early stages of pregnancy and with relatively little bleeding. The specific method is to disinfect and sterilize the patient's vagina and cervix, and then use a scraper to scrape the cervix to remove residual test tube embryo tissue.

Have you ever experienced the trouble of ectopic pregnancy? When ectopic pregnancy occurs, women usually need to undergo surgery in order to remove the test tube embryo in time. There is a unique type of ectopic pregnancy called cervical pregnancy, which requires a specialized surgical procedure called endocervical curettage. So what exactly is cervical curettage? Many people still don't quite understand it.

Endocervical curettage is only used to treat ectopic pregnancy of the cervix. Ectopic pregnancy has different treatment methods depending on the location of the ectopic pregnancy. Ectopic pregnancy in the cervix is ​​a more dangerous type of ectopic pregnancy. If not properly treated, it may cause uterine rupture and internal bleeding, threatening the woman's precious life. However, through cervical curettage, the embryo can be completely eliminated and the woman's uterus can be saved to the greatest extent.

Endocervical curettage cannot solve the problems of all patients with cervical ectopic pregnancy. This procedure is only suitable for patients whose pregnancy period is within 12 weeks, whose bleeding is less, and whose overall condition of ectopic pregnancy is relatively stable. For patients with large gestational sac and heavy bleeding, traditional surgical treatment should be used. This procedure uses local anesthesia. The patient needs to be in the lithotomy position. After the private parts, vagina and cervix are disinfected, the cervical scraping is used to remove the test tube embryo tissue. If bleeding occurs, scraping should be stopped immediately and blood circulation treatment should be done (such as using iodoform cotton wool to block the cervical canal).
