Advanced extrauterine pregnancy mimicking intra-uterine fetal death: case reports.

Two cases of late second trimester extrauterine pregnancy are presented--intraabdominal pregnancy in one and an ampullary pregnancy in another. In the former the diagnosis was made only after attempts at induction of labour for fetal death with prostaglandins failed and in the latter only at laparotomy. The diagnostic and surgical problems encountered are discussed.
