Tubal Pregnancy with Normal Embryos

"In only 25 per cent of our specimens containing normal embryos have we data which bear upon their ages, and in only a few of these cases are there any observations on the condition of the tube wall. In 5 cases (Nos. 175, 179, 183, 387, 898) it is stated that tubal abortion had taken place. This would indicate that with the embryo normal, 10 per cent end in tubal abortion."
