““The Term “Cornual Pregnancy” Should Be Abandoned”

Yes it should be , but it is still used, and I mentioned “interstitial pregnancy” to avoid this confusion .

As you correctly noted “The term “cornual pregnancy” …. 3 of these are intrauterine pregnancies”
It is an imprecise term, BUT as you correctly noted it is used for intrauterine pregnancies.

So to sum up
“Abortion only applies to Intrauterine pregnancy!”

a. That isn’t necessarily true (sure some dictionaries may take a more limited definition but not al do)
b. Some ectopic pregnancies are intrauterine (eg interstitial pregnancies sometimes imprecisely referred to as Cornual pregnancies)

BTW see “Is Abortion Really Necessary For Treating Ectopic Pregnancies?” On the federalist dot com whre the author argued against allowing abortion even for ectopic pregnancies (Though to be fair, she has since apologized after consultation with doctors, hopefully if Roe gets overturned whoever writes any law will consult with Doctors BEFORE they write it and not correct it after like this author)
