And thar info provided in the last sentence of the article.

Wonder if there’s a story there...

>>> the fertilized Oocyte failed to travel into the uterus where it would attach to the uterus wall. Instead it attached to the Fallopian tube wall. The baby grew and the tube burst allowing it to grow in the abdominal cavity

I guess my confusion is based on the false assumption “Bowel” is the same as COLAN. No way it gets in there, let alone grow. If only sicko men that think they can imagine themselves a uterus understood...

The New England Journal of Medicine

A 37-year-old woman presented with a 10-day history of abdominal pain. Physical examination was notable for a gravid abdomen. An MRI showed a nongravid uterus and a normally formed intraabdominal fetus.

The New England Journal of Medicine reported that the woman was growing a ‘normally-formed’ fetus inside her abdominal cavity, which sits in between the stomach and the bowel.

While the doctors could've delivered the child straight away, the survival rate at 24 weeks is only 68%, compared to a much higher 80-90% at 29 weeks. Utilising their skills, the doctors made an incision in the woman's abdomen before placing their patient's baby in neonatal intensive care, in an incredibly successful delivery.

Less than two weeks later, she returned for the medical experts to remove the rest of her placenta. The woman, who had previously suffered miscarriages, was overjoyed to welcome her baby to the world, taking the child home to meet her other two children who couldn't wait to meet their new sibling. - https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/health/woman-who-went-doctors-stomach-31652616
