139 cases of tubal pregnancy were analyzed from different points of view over a 10-year period. The ratio of tubal abortion to tubal rupture, both as a result of tubal pregnancy, was determined in this sample at 1:1. Between abortion and rupture a clear difference in time lapse was found from the last regular menstruation to the culmination of the specific symptom. The average age of the patients studied was 28 years. 40% were nulliparae, 10% had been operated on for a previous extrauterine pregnancy. From the histories of these patients it was revealed that 14% had previously had adnexitis, although genital tuberculosis is considered to play a subordinate role. 4 cases in which an IUD was present were observed. In 45 cases, the tubal pregnancy was accompanied by appendicitis, although in no cases was the right tube found to be obstructed.
