Cervical pregnancy, a rare type of ectopic pregnancy, occurs when the fertilized egg implants in the cervix rather than the uterus. Some synonyms for cervical pregnancy include: cervical ectopic pregnancy, lower uterine segment pregnancy, and isthmic pregnancy. However, it is important to note that these terms may not be interchangeable in the medical field and may refer to slightly different aspects of the condition. Cervical pregnancy can be a life-threatening condition for the mother and requires immediate medical attention. Treatment options may include medication, surgical removal of the embryo, or in severe cases, a hysterectomy to remove the uterus.
