Cervical ectopic pregnancy is an exotic condition. Its diagnosis and management pose a major challenge given its association with serious maternal outcomes. The clinical suspicion and the judicious application of the diagnostic criteria allow for conservative therapy modalities. In this article, a case of cervical ectopic pregnancy is reported to diagnostic ultrasound imaging and nuclear magnetic resonance in which treatment with Methotrexate was administered. Clinical follow-up of the laboratory test and ultrasound showed complete resolution of the condition. Aspects related to the diagnosis and treatment are reviewed.

Keywords : pregnancy ectopic; ultrasonography; magnetic resonance spectroscopy; Methotrexate.
