Pathological studies on fallopian tube in relation to uterine lesions and ovarian abnormalities

Genomic alterations in fallopian tube carcinoma: comparison to serous uterine and ovarian carcinomas reveals similarity suggesting likeness in molecular pathogenesis.

Serous carcinomas of the fallopian tube, uterus, and ovary resemble each other both histologically and in clinical behavior. Comparative genomic hybridization was performed on 20 primary fallopian tube carcinoma specimens to find regions of the genome involved in tubal carcinogenesis and to compare the genomic alterations with those previously detected in serous ovarian and uterine carcinomas. ...

Skin metastases in epithelial ovarian and fallopian tube carcinoma

This study aimed to investigate the clinical features and outcomes of skin metastasis in ovarian and fallopian tube carcinomas.We studied patients with epithelial ovarian or fallopian tube carcinoma who developed skin metastasis from 2001 through 2012, and were also treated with chemotherapy and/or surgery.Skin metastases were classified as umbilical metastasis (Sister Joseph nodule [SJN]) and ...

Tumours of the Fallopian Tube and Uterine Ligaments

Tumours of the fallopian tube are much less common than the corresponding ovarian neoplasms; however, histologically the same surface epithelial-stromal tumour subtypes are recognized. Sex cord-stromal and germ cell tumours are rare. H y d a t i d i f o rm moles and gestational choriocarcinoma are uncommon complications of tubal ectopic pregnancy. The wolffian adnexal tumour is also infrequent ...

The role of the fallopian tube in ovarian cancer.

High-grade serous carcinoma (HGSC) is the most common and lethal subtype of ovarian cancer. Research over the past decade has strongly suggested that "ovarian" HGSC arises in the epithelium of the distal fallopian tube, with serous tubal intraepithelial carcinomas (STICs) being detected in 5-10% of BRCA1/2 mutation carriers undergoing risk-reducing surgery and up to 60% of unselected women with...
