NONE: Ectopic pregency of cervix is rare even rare going to full term, unless get implanted close to uterus, then a nightmare to managing team, always associated with bleeding, could be massive, usually aborts, or require urgent surgical intervention, and medical treatment has no role. Leave it to expert OB surgeon to handle the problem.

Usually fails.: Intralesional ultrasound-guided methothrexate or Potassium Chloride injection is the optimal treatment for cervical or cesarean scar ectopics. Medical treatment with intramuscular (systemic) Methotrexate is not very successful in avoiding life-threatening hemorrhage and hysterectomy in cervical ectopics, however is easier first step in many cases.
