neutral  Andrea Kaplan: No tienes ningun indicio de que el embarazo sea abdominal, cervical o tubario, por lo tanto tienes que usar "ectopico". Solo usas uno de esos terminos cuando estas seguro de la localizacion del embrion.

  -> sí, de acuerdo. no quise decir que eran maneras indistintas (aunque parece que eso es lo que dije!) sino que si se sabe dónde se implantó el embrión se puede usar estos términos. Gracias por la aclaración.
