| It is difficult to falsify the official statistics because on the death certificate (signed by a doctor), the doctor is asked (if the deceased was female), whether the death occurred during pregnancy, including abortion and ectopic pregnancy. The two groups had similar odds of having experienced amenorrhea or infertility, having been pregnant, having had a live birth and having had an adverse birth outcome (miscarriage, ectopic pregnancy, stillbirth, neonatal death or hydatidiform mole). Computed tomography of the paranasal sinuses demonstrated a left unilateral maxillary sinus opacification that had been produced by an ectopic molar: The tooth was removed via an endoscopic approach rather than with a traditional Caldwell-Luc procedure. |
