Serum beta-hCG titers do not predict ruptured ectopic pregnancy.

Objective: To study the relationship of serum beta-hCG titers in unruptured (U) vs. ruptured (R) tubal ectopic pregnancies.

Method: 183 consecutive tubal ectopic pregnancies, confirmed by surgery and/or pathology, were classified as unruptured (n=108), or ruptured (n=75).
