ectopic pregnancies occur outside the uterus and are regarded as abnormal, a risk to the health of the mother, Do they ever deliver the babies and have they been artificially inseminated to accomplish such a pregnancy when the woman has no uterus due to birth anomaly or surgery?

Ectopic pregnancies are very dangerous and science has never found a way to deliver a baby that was formed in the fallopian tubes because of the fact that the falopian tubes are too small to allow room for the fetus inside to grow to its full birth weight length and size.
The more and more a fetus grows inside of the fallopian tubes the more they expand and begin to break. If the tubes break or bust the woman could die if not brought to the emergency room right away. If her tubes burst she will never carry a child so it is best to try and save her tubes and get rid of the fetus BEFORE there is a risk of death. This way the doctors can at least try to save her fertility.
At this point the woman's life is at risk and so is the fetus's and since the baby is already forming it cannot be saved or transferred to the uterus.
Since the woman you are speaking of has no uterus she would not be able to ever carry a baby.
Are her eggs still fertile or any good? If so she has the option to find a surrogate mother which depending on the person it may cost a lot of money or no money at all if it is a good friend who has already carried children in the past.
The baby would be her own if she implants her own eggs into the woman's uterus with the man's sperm of whom she wishes to have children with
If not she could adopt.
There are other options just not for her own body
Sorry.

An ectopic pregnancy is not always in the fallopian tube. It can be in the abdominal cavity. There have been medical records of babies growing to almost full term in the abdominal cavity, but all babies died. How would any expect to deliver a baby without the muscle of the uterus? Do you think it would just slide out? No labor doesn't work that way. Fallopian Tube pregnancy will rupture the tube, causing damage to the tube and possibly causing the mother to bleed out. Ectopic pregnancies are very dangerous and the babies will not be born because they will not reach full term. The only way to have a child without a uterus is by adoption or surrogate. This is assuming somewhere the person had eggs frozen.

I think they'd probably do a Cesarean section as delivering in a normal fashion could harm the baby and/or the mother. And on the other hand, I'm not sure an ectopic pregnancy could work without the uterus as I was always led to believe that the egg attached itself to the outside of the uterus wall in an ectopic pregnancy.

An ectopic pregnancy occurs in the fallopian tubes and is never carried to full term it is aborted. If such a pregnancy was allowed to happen it would burst the mothers insides and she would bleed do death. If you do not have a uterus you can not bear children period. You can not be inseminated because there is no where for the baby to grow. If you would like to have children you should ask about a surrogate mother. If the woman still has good ovaries and eggs they can harvest them with your sperm and in-plant them in another woman and she can carry your baby to full term. There are always tons of children that need to be adopted

Not possible because sperm cells reach the fallopian tubes through the uterus. There is no way to get there with no uterus. I don't think any doctor would artificially inseminate a person with no uterus because of the danger of ectopic pregnancy. If you have the money however you could have eggs surgically removed, fertilized in a tube and implanted in a surrogate mother.

Ectopic pregnancies can occur in the ovary, the abdomen, and in the lower portion of the uterus. The egg can also implant in the ovary, abdomen, or the cervix, so you may see these referred to as cervical or abdominal pregnancies.
None of these areas has as much space or nurturing tissue as a uterus for a pregnancy to develop. As the fetus grows, it will eventually burst the organ that contains it. This can cause severe bleeding and endanger the mother's life. A classical ectopic pregnancy never develops into a live birth.

An ectopic pregnancy is not just outside of the uterus, it is in the fallopian tube. The tubes are small and can not stretch to the size of a normal fetus, thus, it has to be removed or it can cause a rupture of the tube.
Without a uterus, it is currently impossible to carry a fetus to term.

You are me...but a month ago:) I have had 2 ectopic pregnancies in the last 3 months. I ended up miscarrying on my own and did not need to have any further medical intervention. The embryo can not survive in the fallopian tubes, it is sooo important for your health that you have this taken care of. There are a few ways that ectopic pregnancies are treated. They can either dissolve and miscarry on their own, you can have surgery, or get a shot of metothrexate. If the fallopian tube bursts it is not a death sentence for the mother, but it does need to be surgically fixed asap because YES it could kill the mother, but with the medical advances of today as long as the mother gets help soon she will be ok.

No, ectopic pregnancies will result in the rupture of the fallopian tube, a medical emergency.
I'm afraid you need a uterus to deliver a baby.

I do not believe any eptopic pregnancy can go long enough so that the child is actually delivered full term or alive.
My understanding is that the fertilized egg must imbed itself into a source of nutrition and then it grows, etc.
Eptopic pregnancies often "burst" as the fetus gets larger and the host area of the body is not equiped to support 9 months of developemnt...it's not big enough.
This is just the odds and ends that I understand to be true.
I knew a woman who died after her eptopic pregancy burst and her body was somehow poisoned.
