Figure 1 Ultrasonography showing a particularly large disruption of the cesarean scar in a patient with recurrent cesarean scar pregnancy after surgery (arrow). CX = cervix; F = fundal endometrial cavity.

Figure 2 Cesarean scar pregnancies demonstrated by ultrasound showing the gestational sac implanted in the lower segment dehiscence of the anterior myometrium. CX = cervix; F = fundal endometrial cavity. (A) The residual myometrium was thin and the amniotic sac bulged into the uterovesical fold under the cesarean scar (arrow). (B) The gestational sac was generally located in the lower uterine cavity, and only the inferior part was implanted in the cesarean scar (arrow).

Supplemental Figure 1 Magnetic resonance image (MRI) of a cesarean scar pregnancy (CSP). The sagittal T2-MRI shows a 4.8 × 5.6 × 5.0 cm heterogeneous mass within the lower segment of the anterior uterine wall (arrow). The markedly thinned myometrium between the mass and the urinary bladder was indicative of a CSP.
