A pla-centa forms, but the decidual structuresare rudimentary; so that the chorionicvilH penetrate readily into the gesta-tional sac as far as the phenomenon, by favoring hemor-rhage, tends to favor both abortion andrupture. In regard to the history of theovum in tubal pregnancy, it may under-go early death in the tube and form amole; if rupture of the tube occurs, theovum, expelled into the abdominal cav-ity, usually perishes, and if very young may be absorbed. In very exceptionalcases it may thrive (secondary abdominal pregnancy); if the ovum escapes intothe broad ligament (Figs. 492 and 494), death with molar formation results.
