Declining beta-human chorionic gonadotropin level may provide false security that tubal pregnancy will not rupture.

Abstract
Two patients with declining serum concentrations of beta-human chorionic gonadotropin (beta-hCG) and a ruptured tubal pregnancy with hemoperitoneum are described. Declining beta-hCG does not rule out the possibility that the ectopic pregnancy will rupture.
