Ectopic pregnancy: when an egg grows outside the womb
Article Abstract:
The risks, symptoms and treatment of ectopic pregnancy are discussed. Ectopic pregnancy occurs when the fertilized egg is not implanted in the uterus but is instead ensconced in one of the two fallopian tubes following fertilization. This fertilized egg needs to be removed through surgery to prevent rupturing of the fallopian tube.
