Foetal remnants were found in uterine curettings obtained from three women complaining of irregular vaginal bleeding. These findings are discussed in relation to other cases in the literature in which heterotopic tissues have been found in curettings and also for the light they throw on the origin of the so‐called uterine teratomas.
