The aim of this study was to define the characteristic MR findings of cervical pregnancy. Twelve patients with cervical pregnancy underwent MRI because of difficulty in the diagnosis by ultrasonography, human chorionic gonadotropin assessment, and other clinical evaluations. The assessment of MRI included size and location of the lesion, margin, MR signal intensity, rim of low-signal intensity, enhancement pattern, appearance of enhancing solid component, parametrial change, endometrial change, pelvic fluid collection, and ovarian change. All cases showed ill-marginated mass with very heterogeneous signal intensity on T2-weighted images, irregular internal high-signal intensities on T1-weighted images, a partial or circumferential rim of low-signal intensity, dense irregular peripheral enhancement and enhancing papillary solid components with accompanying tubular signal voids, and variably increased parametrial vascularities. This heterogeneous hemorrhagic mass with densely enhancing papillary solid components may be the typical MR finding for cervical pregnancy. J. Magn. Reson. Imaging 2001;13:918-922.
