Interstitial ectopic pregnancy, misnamed cornual, is a rare pathology, but it implies a high morbidity and mortality if it is notdiagnosed and treated on time. We present the case of a one-year-old patient who attended the emergency room due topain, vaginal bleeding, and a 9-week period of amenorrhea. During the ultrasonographic evaluation, a gestational sac withan active embryo was evidenced at the level of the right uterine horn, for which the diagnosis of cornual ectopic pregnancywas considered and proceeding to perform an abdominal hysterectomy. The best knowledge of the natural history of thedisease, as well as an early and timely diagnosis, is the key to the conservative management of this disease.

Establece la tasa de prevalencia de cesáreas realizadas en gestantes añosas que fueron atendidas en el Instituto Nacional Materno Perinatal de Lima durante el periodo de enero a diciembre de 2022. El estudio es de tipo observacional, descriptivo, de corte transversal y retrospectivo en el Instituto Nacional Materno Perinatal durante el año 2022, de las cuales se revisaron 194 historias clínicas que cumplen con los criterios de inclusión y exclusión. Posteriormente, se analiza por medio del programa IBM SPSS versión 25.0. En cuanto a los resultados, de una población de 913 pacientes, se tiene una muestra de 227 pacientes, de los cuales al aplicar los criterios de inclusión y exclusión se obtiene una muestra final de 194 historias que son analizadas. Se encuentra que la prevalencia de cesáreas es del 87% en las gestantes añosas, siendo las principales indicaciones de cesárea l...
