Bilateral Primary Papillary Serous Carcinoma of the Fallopian Tube
Journal Title: Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research - Year 2017, Vol 11, Issue 5
Abstract
Primary fallopian tube carcinoma is considered one of the rarest female genital cancers, and its bilateral occurrence is even rarer. Because of the rarity of fallopian tube carcinomas as well as the clinical presentation which simulates an ovarian cancer, a correct preoperative diagnosis of fallopian tube carcinoma is seen only in 4% of cases, and is usually first appreciated by Pathologists. We are reporting our experience of a case of bilateral primary serous carcinoma of the fallopian tube in a 36-year-old female.
