An ectopic thyroid is a condition in which some of a person's thyroid tissues or the entire gland fails to form in the right place...
But in an ectopic pregnancy, the egg implants itself in the fallopian tube â which leads from the ovary to the womb. In rarer cases it implants itself in the abdominal cavity or an ovary. Around one in 60 to one in 80 pregnancies are ectopic â and in the vast majority the baby cannot be saved. Often a woman will only realise the pregnancy is ectopic at the first scan between six and ten weeks. Usually it is terminated immediately because of the risks to the mother.
