A case of uterine endometrial carcinoma 15 months post-partum.

A case of uterine endometrial carcinoma 15 months post-partum, who did have none of typical risk factors of uterine endometrial carcinoma, is presented. The occurrence of post-partum uterine endometrial carcinoma is extremely rare condition probably due to anti-carcinogenic effects of progesterone. Progesterone refractory cells in the uterine endometrium, which could be an origin of the endometrial carcinoma, might have existed.

Management of bilateral fallopian tube carcinoma coexistent with tuberculous salpingitis.

Primary carcinoma of the fallopian tube is a rare gynecologic malignancy. Chronic tubal inflammation is associated with primary carcinoma of the fallopian tube. There are only a few reports on primary carcinoma of the fallopian tube coexisting with tuberculous salpingitis. We are reporting a patient with both the primary carcinoma of the fallopian tube and tuberculous salpingitis, which were detected in bilateral fallopian tubes. The histologic type was serous adenocarcinoma. The patient was treated with total abdominal hysterectomy, bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, infracolic omentectomy, and bilateral pelvic lymphadenectomy followed by chemotherapy consisting of paclitaxel and cisplatin. She has been alive without evidence of disease for 18 months.

Haemangioma of the fallopian tube. Case report.

I present the sixth report of a patient with a haemangioma of the Fallopian tube and the first from the United Kingdom. The patient presented with an acute abdomen due to haemoperitoneum.

Primary carcinoma of the fallopian tube. Report of 22 cases.

Twenty-two patients with primary carcinoma of the Fallopian tube treated at the Royal Marsden Hospital are reported. The age distribution, parity and variety of presentation of the disease were in accordance with previous reports in the literature. Overall survival at 5 years was 48% and the place of radiotherapy and chemotherapy in its management remains to be established.

The management of primary fallopian tube carcinoma.

The outcome of 30 patients with primary fallopian tube carcinoma is described. Treatment varied over the 22 year period of accrual and included combinations of surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy. There was an apparent increase in stage at treatment with time which was probably related to more precise staging at laparotomy and the greater use of computerized tomography. The median survival for all patients was 28 months and the 5-year survival was 18%. Ten patients received postoperative chemotherapy for residual disease with an overall response rate of 80% and median progression-free and overall survival times of 14 and 21 months respectively. The pattern of relapse was similar to that seen in ovarian carcinoma, with all but one patient having the pelvis or abdomen as the main site of recurrence. Primary fallopian tube carcinoma has a response to treatment and a tumour biology similar to that of ovarian carcinoma. It is recommended that the management of this uncommon malignancy should continue to be along the lines of ovarian carcinoma, with initial treatment by cytoreductive surgery followed by chemotherapy or radiotherapy for residual disease.

Benign teratoma of the Fallopian tube.

Teratoma of the Fallopian tube is very uncommon. Only 47 cases have been reported since 1865. Many have been discovered incidentally and none has been diagnosed preoperatively. The majority are cystic, show great variation in size, are commonly located in the ampulla or isthmus and are either intraluminal or attached to the luminal surface by a pedicle. Histologically they are similar to teratomas of the ovary and elsewhere. Only one instance of malignant tubal teratoma has been recorded. An association with nulliparity or reduced parity has been noted in some cases. The present case of benign tubal teratoma is the 48th and apparently the smallest reported.

Fallopian Tube Neoplasms↗

The surgical treatment of tubal polyps.

Three of 5 women who had resection of intramural tubal polyps as part of their infertility treatment conceived normal pregnancies within 12 months. Linear salpingotomy for the resection of polyps may have a place in the surgical management of infertility.

Adult↗

Primary endometrial squamous cell carcinoma with long-term survival.

Primary endometrial squamous cell carcinoma is a rare variant of uterine epithelial malignancy. A review of records over a 10-year period at a major referral centre for gynaecological malignancy identified 4 patients with this disease. They were treated primarily by surgery, with adjuvant radiotherapy or chemotherapy in 3 cases. In comparison to previously reported cases the length of survival for these patients was long.
