📋Overview
Extrauterine pregnancy is a legacy term referring to pregnancy occurring outside the uterine cavity. The modern preferred term is ectopic pregnancy. This condition most commonly involves implantation of the fertilized egg in the fallopian tube but can also occur in other locations such as the ovary, cervix, or abdominal cavity. Ectopic pregnancy is a serious condition requiring prompt diagnosis and management.
