Can a tubal pregnancy go to full term?

Best Answers

No. A tubal pregnancy will rupture the tube and the baby will die, possibly killing the mother as well if she doesn't receive immediate medical help. An ectopic pregnancy can, however, go to full term in rare cases if the placenta is able to implant somewhere it can obtain a sufficient blood supply. read more
