A Brief Discussion on Primary Fallopian Tube Carcinoma

Stephanie Ricci

Primary fallopian tube melanoma (PFTC) is a veritably rare gynecologic nasty excrescence and accounts for roughly 0.14-1.8 of womanish genital malice. In 1847, Renaud first described fallopian tube malice. In 1888, Orthmann presented the first genuine case report. Since also over 2000 case have been reported in literature. Its prevalence has been rising during the last decades and varied between 2.9 and 5.7. Histologic, molecular and inheritable substantiation shows that from 40-60 of tumors that were classified as high-grade serous lymphomas of the ovary or peritoneum may have begun in the fimbria and of the fallopian tube. Thus the prevalence of fallopian tube cancers may have been undervalued.
