  • Title: Second-trimester tubal pregnancy: a case report.
    Author: Rackow BW, Quiñones JN, Barnhart K.
    Journal: J Reprod Med; 2005 Sep; 50(9):719-22. PubMed ID: 16363762.
    Abstract:
    BACKGROUND: Second-trimester tubal pregnancy is an infrequent diagnosis, as these pregnancies often present with symptoms during the first trimester. CASE: A previously asymptomatic woman presented with pelvic pain and vaginal bleeding at 4 months' gestation and was found to have a live, 14-week, tubal pregnancy. CONCLUSION: Second-trimester symptoms, including nausea, vomiting, pelvic or abdominal pain, and vaginal bleeding, necessitate ultrasound to determine the pregnancy location, maintaining suspicion for a tubal or abdominal pregnancy.
