Other terms for this condition are blighted ovum and anembryonic pregnancy.An inevitable abortion describes where the cervix has already dilated open, but the fetus has yet to be expelled. This usually will progress to a complete abortion. The fetal heartbeat may have been shown to have stopped, but this is not part of the criteria.
