Abstract

Primary carcinoma of the fallopian tube is rare, but still occurs frequently enough to warrant consideration when certain specific symptoms are present. It is also possible to diagnose the tumor correctly if, in the presence of certain symptoms, the following diagnostic tools are used in addition to repeated Pap smears and dilatation and curettage: hysteroscopy, cervical biopsy, colposcopy, laparoscopy, laparotomy, and pathological examination of every tubal specimen.
