Swedish term or phrase: hinnsäck
Could this be "amniotic sac" in English? Text relates to an early pregnancy that becomes a miscarriage. An example of use of the word as follows: "uterus med en intrauterin hinnsäck, inuti ses en foster med klar hjärtaktivitet."

NB the same word often appears in the text spelled "hinnesäck".

English translation:gestational sac
Explanation:
This is what I found ... search hinnsäck + gulesäck and compare to "gestational sac" + "yolk sac". Google wants to spell it hinnsäck, but finds hits with hinnesäck. But this looks like the same thing. Plenty of references
