it means that your body developed a place for an egg that didn't develop :-(

It means that there was a pregnancy that got started but the embryo/fetus has died or just didn't develop. An embryo/fetus that dies can be reabsorbed and leave nothing in the sac.
There can be a full-developed placenta in addition to the sac.
This can be called a "missed abortion", and there's a chance the woman would have a miscarriage eventually
It most likely results from a blighted ovum.

It means that a fetus never actually developed. Nor will it. If your OB has found an empty sac, you should have had a D&C scheduled. It's not abortion, because you don't have a baby in there. You will more than likely miscarry soon, as your body will reject it.
