I know someone who delivered live babies at seven months. They needed a lot of intensive care, and one died, but the other is currently alive and fine. My guess is that, if this same person had gotten into a fatal accident and the fetuses were quickly removed, they'd have had almost as good of a chance to live.
I'd say that it's worth mentioning the death of a fetus whenever there's some question that the fetus might have lived.
