Grade of recommendation: A
In the presence of a healthy contralateral tube, salpingectomy should be performed in preference to salpingotomy.

Grade of recommendation: B
In women with a history of fertility‐reducing factors (previous ectopic pregnancy, contralateral tubal damage, previous abdominal surgery, previous pelvic inflammatory disease), salpingotomy should be considered.

Grade of recommendation: C
If a salpingotomy is performed, women should be informed about the risk of persistent trophoblast with the need for serum β‐hCG level follow‐up. They should also be counseled that there is a small risk that they may need further treatment in the form of systemic methotrexate or salpingectomy.
