A literature review was performed on all eligible reports using this modality as the first-line treatment of CSP in English report. Relevant publications were obtained from the PubMed electronic database from inception to October 2018. Two hundred and fifteen cases reported in 7 articles were reviewed. The success rate of treatment was 99.5% (214/215), complication rate was 1.4% (3/215), and hysterectomy rate was 0.5% (1/215).
