The gravid tube occupies the left posterior quarter of the pelvis, and is connected by a pedicle with the uterine cornu. beneath the mucosa, between the latter and the muscularis, or, morecommonly, the ovum burrows into the muscular wall (.see Fig. 109). Ineither case the ovum develops external to the lumen, in the wallof the tube, and the tissues of the tube-wall form for it a gestation-sac or capsule. In intra-uterine pregnancy the embedding is not deep ; penetrationnever extends beyond the mucous membrane into the muscle ; indeed,it does not reach very deeply into the mucosa, so that the growingembryo forms, almost from the first, a vesicular projection towardsthe uterine cavity. The more superficial the embedding in the tube,the more striking is the analogy of tubal pregnancy to uterine 10
