Primary fallopian tube endometroid carcinoma: A rare case report.

Primary fallopian tube carcinoma is an extremely rare tumor accounting for only 0.14-1.8% of genital tract cancers. A 47-year-old female presented with post-menopausal bleeding and heaviness in the lower abdomen. Imaging revealed the right adnexal mass, suggestive of neoplastic origin. She was prepared for surgery. Per-operatively, there was a solid irregular mass, firm to hard in consistency, around 8 × 5 cm involving the whole of the right fallopian tube, and the right ovary appeared normal. Histopathological examination of the specimen showed endometroid adenocarcinoma of the right fallopian tube. Endometroid carcinoma is important to recognize because it carries the best prognosis of all the fallopian tube cancers. The patient underwent surgery, followed by adjuvant chemotherapy, and was doing well in follow-up. Copyright © 2023 Copyright: © 2023 Journal of Cancer Research and Therapeutics.
