description The aim of the present case series is to describe clinical presentation and ultrasonographic appearances observed in this rare form of ectopic pregnancy. We present 4 cases of interstitial ectopic pregnancy which were treated surgically at our institute over one year period.

Early diagnosis is mandatory for management of this potentially fatal condition and a high index of suspicion is essential for early diagnosis.
