Non-tubal ectopic pregnancies represent fewer than 10% of all ectopic pregnancies. However, they are associated with a high rate of mortality due to late diagnosis and uterine horn rupture which requires radical emergency surgical management. Cornuectomy via laparoscopy is a treatment of choice. We provide here a simple description of laparoscopic cornuectomy using an Endo GIA stapling system: the Endo GIA® automatic forceps. It has the advantage of removing the mass, suturing, and achieving satisfactory haemostasis in a single step.
