Results: Total deliveries were conducted were 5064. The incidence of ectopic pregnancy was 1.48%, majority of the women were in the age group of 21-30 (68%), multi-parous (77.32%). The most common risk factor was abortion 33.33%, f/b tubal ligation was 13.13%, medical management of ectopic pregnancy done in 30.66%, 8% were managed by laproscopically and 58.66% by laparotomy.
