Abstract

Objective: To explore the factors associated with trophoblastic infiltration in ampullary pregnancy from the perspective of clinical and pathologic characteristics. Methods: A single‐center, retrospective, clinicopathologic cohort study was conducted in women who were diagnosed with tubal pregnancy and underwent salpingectomy in the International Peace Maternal and Child Health Care Hospital from January 2018 to June 2021. Results: A total of 333 eligible women diagnosed with ampullary pregnancy were included in the analysis. Multivariate logistic analysis showed that preoperative β‐human chorionic gonadotropin greater than 3000 IU/L (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] 3.77, 95% confidence interval [CI] 2.02–7.03), and vascular remodeling phenomenon (aOR 4.34, 95% CI 2.41–7.83) were positively correlated with the infiltration of extravillous trophoblasts into serosa, while presence of chronic inflammation of the fallopian tube was a negatively corellated factor (aOR 0.49, 95% CI 0.29–0.85). Conclusion: The depth of trophoblastic infiltration in tubal pregnancy may be related to the presence of chronic inflammation in the fallopian tube. A tubal pregnancy in a tube with chronic salpingitis is more likely to develop into an abortive ectopic pregnancy; whereas in a fallopian tube without chronic inflammation, the risk of it developing into a ruptured ectopic pregnancy increases. Hence, early identification is needed to properly address this dangerous pregnancy situation. Synopsis: Trophoblastic infiltration of tubal pregnancy may have an association with chronic inflammation of the fallopian tube. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
