Ectopic pregnancy with shock and undetectable beta-human chorionic gonadotropin. A case report
Abstract
A patient with an ectopic pregnancy presented with intraabdominal hemorrhage, hypotension and a beta-human chorionic gonadotropin (beta-hCG) less than 5 mIU/mL. Although rare, a negative beta-hCG does not rule out the diagnosis of ectopic pregnancy.
