The surgical procedure for an ectopic pregnancy typically involves a laparoscopic or open surgery to remove the ectopic tissue. In most cases, this involves either salpingectomy, where the affected fallopian tube is removed, or salpingostomy, where an incision is made in the tube to remove the ectopic tissue while preserving the tube. The choice of procedure depends on factors like the size of the ectopic mass and the patient's overall health.
