Abstract

Primary fallopian tube cancer is a rare malignancy. It is commonly confused clinically with ovarian mass. The commonest clinical features are clear or blood stained discharge per vaginum and abdominal pain. As the fallopian tube distends with the mass the patient has severe abdominal pain and thus presents earlier to the clinician. However thorough clinical examination may still not enable a preoperative diagnosis and thus intraoperative inspection becomes very important to label it as primary tubal origin. The management is similar to epithelial ovarian cancer. It carries a better prognosis than ovarian tumors as it tends to be diagnosed early and has a better five year survival rate.
