Ectopic pregnancy always results in spontaneous abortion.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Ectopic pregnancy is a pregnancy that occurs outside of the uterus, usually in the fallopian tube. It cannot result in a live birth and needs to be treated or it can be life-threatening. It does not always result in spontaneous abortion, as the fertilized egg may continue to grow until it causes damage to the surrounding tissues or ruptures the fallopian tube. Treatment often involves medication or surgery to remove the ectopic pregnancy.
