Ectopic pregnancy.
Ectopic pregnancy continues to be a major clinical problem and is the leading cause of death in the first trimester of pregnancy. Diagnosis can be elusive. A thorough knowledge of the clinical spectrum of this disease, as well as the diagnostic tools available to the primary care clinician, provides the opportunity for making an early diagnosis. This is essential if the morbidity and mortality of ectopic pregnancy are to be reduced.
