An unruptured tubal pregnancy at term. 1986

M Chokroverty, and R L Caballes, and P E Gear

We report a case of advanced, unruptured tubal pregnancy proceeding beyond term. A 25-year-old woman was admitted at 42 weeks' gestation because of lower abdominal pain and inability to feel fetal movements. An ultrasound examination suggested fetal death. At laparotomy three weeks after admission, a right-sided, unruptured tubal mass containing a macerated fetus was found.
