Purpose of investigation: To assess the effect of laparoscopic temporary clipping of uterine and ovarian arteries for the treatment of interstitial ectopic pregnancy. Materials and Methods: A 29-year-old woman with vaginal bleeding and pelvic pain was admitted to the current clinic. She had secondary amenorrhea for nine weeks. Transvaginal ultrasonography revealed normal empty uterus and right interstitial ectopic pregnancy with viable embryo. Laparoscopic temporary clipping of uterine and ovarian arteries, interstitial pregnancy resection, and primary myometrial suturing was performed. Results: Following dissection Latzko pararectal space for the visualization of both uterine arteries, four vascular clips were placed (two to uterine arteries, two to infundibulopelvic ligaments).

The patient was discharged from the hospital after one day without any remarkable complications. Conclusions: To the best of the authors' knowledge, this is the first case of interstitial pregnancy that was successfully treated by temporary laparoscopic clipping of uterine and ovarian vessels prior to interstitial ectopic pregnancy resection.
