Gestational sac surrounded by a thick chorionic ring outside and immediately adjacent to the myometrium
![Page 29: Ectopic Pregnancy](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061122/546fee7fb4af9f1f2b8b4599/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)

PATHOGENESIS OF ECTOPIC PREGNANCIES
Tubal pregnancy
- ampullary > isthmic > interstitial
- secondary, tubo-ovarian, tubo-abdimin
al,
broad-ligament pregnancies develop
- fertilized ovum burrows through the epi
thelium
(because, tube lacks a submocosal
layer)
zygote comes to lie within the musc
ular wall
rapidly proliferating trophoblast inva
des the
subjacent muscuralis
maternal blood vessels are opened
![Page 33: Ectopic Pregnancy](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061122/546fee7fb4af9f1f2b8b4599/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
TUBAL RUPTURE
- the invading, expanding products of conception
may rupture the oviduct at any sites
- occur in the first few weeks in first trimester
(but, interstitial pregnancy usually occur later)
- usually, spontaneously rupture
(sometimes coitus or bimanual examination)
- rarely, undamaged conceptus into the peritoneal
cavity lithopedion

Enlarged uterus with grossly thickened endometrium (decidual cast) of almost 15 mm. The uterus shows absence of any gestation sac. No pseudosac is seen
Transvaginal scan of the pelvis shows a large collection of hemorrhagic fluid in the cul de sac 3) A right adnexal mass, presumably in the Right Fallopian tube is also seen. A left ovarian hemorrhagic cyst is also present.

HETEROTOPIC GESTATION
Also called Heterotopic pregnancy or
simultaneous intrauterine and
extrauterine pregnancy or coexistent
intrauterine and extrauterine
pregnancy

CERVICAL ECTOPIC
•Implantation of the fertilized ovum with
subsequent development within the
cervical structure without involvement
of the corpus uteri (below the level of
internal os)
. In a typical case, the endocervix is
invaded by the trophoblast, and the
pregnancy proceeds to develop in the
fibrous cervical wall. The duration of
pregnancy is dependent upon the site
of embryo implantation. The higher it is
implanted in the cervical canal, the
greater is its capacity to grow and
cause haemorrhage .

Threatened abortion
A pregnancy complicated by bleeding before 20 weeks’ gestation
Inevitable abortion
The cervix has dilated, but the products of conception have not been expelled
Complete abortion
All products of conception have been passed without need for surgical or medical intervention
![Page 50: Ectopic Pregnancy](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061122/546fee7fb4af9f1f2b8b4599/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
ABORTION
Incomplete abortion
Some, but not all, of the products of conception have been passed; retained products may be part of the fetus, placenta, or membranes
Missed abortion
A pregnancy in which there is a fetal demise (usually for a number of weeks) but no uterine activity to expel the products of conception
Septic abortion
A spontaneous abortion that is complicated by intrauterine infection
Recurrent spontaneous abortion
Three (3) or more consecutive pregnancy losses

RISK FACTORS
Increasing maternal age
9% for a 20-24 year-old 15% for a 30-34 year-old
51% for a 40-44 year-old
Advancing age of th[e father
Smoking, alcohol, cocaine and heavy coffee consumption Certain drugs, such as those used for chemotherapy
Certain medical conditions are risk factors as well. These include:
Poorly-controlled diabetesUncontrolled thyroid diseaseHigh prolactin (a hormone associated with breastfeeding) levelsThe polycystic ovarian syndrome.Obesity or severely low weight.

INCOMPLETE ABORTION
Empty gestational sac.

MISSED ABORTION
In a missed abortion, falling levels of HCG or ultrasound imaging confirm that a miscarriage has occurred, but minimal or no bleeding occurs and the uterus has failed to expel the pregnancy.
![Page 57: Ectopic Pregnancy](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061122/546fee7fb4af9f1f2b8b4599/html5/thumbnails/57.jpg)
-
The gestational sac is irregularly formed, and also the embryo is missing from inside the gestational sac (Blighted Ovum)
