The patient, 32 years old, came to the author at the end of May with suspicion of some abdominal tumor. She has been married for 6 years, was not pregnant. Since the end of last year, she began to suffer from bleeding and pain in the lower abdomen. On examination, the patient turned out to be a well-fed woman. In the abdomen, a swelling is felt that goes 3 fingers above the navel and resembles a pregnant uterus when examined; dorsum of the fetus to the right, small parts to the left. The heartbeat could be heard only for a very short time, to the right of the navel, and upon repeated auscultation, it was not heard at all. The vaginal part is soft and loosened. Resistance is felt in the anterior and posterior fornix, which is softer than the fetal head. Diagnosis: pregnancy, complicated by presentation of the child's place or endometritis.
