Embryo transfer in vivo.
Records of 44 patients with advanced ectopic pregnancy were reviewed. The author demonstrates that in vivo embryo transfer can reimplant later than one week of gestation and that implantation does not require endometrium as the only implantation site. Other tissues and organs can support implantation, but adequate hormonal secretion is necessary.
