2nd fake DM headline posted here today that I’ve seen (I’m sure there are others).
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
