Abstract
Ectopic pregnancies affect 2% of all pregnancies in the United States, 95% of which occur in the Fallopian tubes. The most Significant Cause Of ectopic pregnancies is infection from pelvic inflammatory disease that results in deciliated regions of the Fallopian tube. A comparison between the morphology of healthy, fully ciliated Fallopian tubes and tubes with various degrees of damage (to mark the process of deciliation) may show the changes in the morphology that lead to ectopic pregnancies.
