We aimed to explore the early predictors for pregnancy outcomes of HP. We reviewed patients with HP following assisted reproductive technology in our institution between January 2013 and December 2020. The relationships between pregnancy outcomes and clinical features were analysed by logistic regression. We found that 29 patients (72.5%) of HP were accurately diagnosed by transvaginal ultrasonography (TVS). Eighteen patients in the surgery group had live births, three of whom delivered preterm. Additionally, the miscarriage rate was lower for patients with IUP cardiac activity than those without (16.7% vs. 90.0%, p |
