| | Fallopian Tube Carcinoma |
 | | Primary carcinoma of the fallopian tube is the rarest cancer of the female genital tract with an incidence of 0.5% of all gynecologic tumors. |  | | Surgery was the initial therapy for all patients. |  | | The Dodson modification of the FIGO surgical staging as it applies to carcinoma of the fallopian tube was utilized. |

 | | Activation of the receptors by raised progesterone level in the luteal phase leads to relaxation of the circular muscles; thus, the isthmic luminal diameter is increased and transisthmic passage of the fertilized ovum is facilitated. |  | | Salpingectomy: Performed in a patient in whom a tube is thought to be nonsalvagable or a patient who does not desire future conception. |  | | Tubal carcinoma is the rarest genital cancer, represented about 0.3% of all genital malignancy, and the age of incidence is 40-60 years. |

| | eMedicine - Fallopian Tube Reconstruction : Article by Krystene I Boyle, MD |
 | | Relevant Anatomy: The fallopian tubes are seromuscular paired tubular organs that run medially from the ovaries to the cornua of the uterus. |  | | Fallopian tube reconstruction has been the traditional method of restoring reproductive function to women with tubal infertility. |  | | Over time, a better understanding of fallopian tube physiology, advances in perioperative care, and improvements in surgical techniques have resulted in better outcomes. |

| | Fallopian tube procedures for infertility - Quest Diagnostics Patient Health Library |
 | | Ask your doctor for his or her success rates (birth of a healthy baby), as well as national success rates, for any procedure you are considering. |  | | The success of a sterilization reversal is influenced by the tubal ligation method used, how recently the tubal ligation was performed, and the woman's age-related fertility. |  | | These blockages often are functional (such as a mucus plug) rather than structural (such as scarring or other obstruction). |

| | CancerWise - CancerWise - May04 - FS - Q&A: What to Know About Fallopian Tube Cancer |
 | | Although rare gynecologic cancers — such as fallopian tube cancer — do not occur often, it benefits all women to be aware that they exist and to learn the facts. |  | | A staging procedure is performed during the surgery, which samples specific areas to see if any cancer has spread. |  | | Nearly all patients will need additional treatment after surgery, usually in the form of chemotherapy. |

 | | In most cases, women don't learn that they have fallopian tube cancer until a fallopian tube has been removed surgically to treat another illness or problem and is examined in a laboratory. |  | | Because fallopian tube cancer is so rare, and its symptoms can be similar to the symptoms of other problems, your doctor may suspect that you have some other gynecological problem. |  | | These conditions have symptoms similar to fallopian tube cancer and are more common than fallopian tube cancer. |

| | Fallopian tube - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Embryos have two pairs of ducts to let gametes out of the body; one pair develops in females into the Fallopian tubes, uterus and vagina, while the other pair develops in males into the epididymis and vas deferens. |  | | The Fallopian tubes are not homologous to the vas deferens or any other structure in males. |  | | Normally, only one of the pair of tubes will develop while the other regresses and disappears in utero. |

| | Fallopian Tube Blockage |
 | | Again resection with laparoscopic anastomosis is an effective form of treatment. |  | | If this is not successful, a catheter, very much like that used for heart surgery, is threaded into the fallopian tube to release the blockage. |  | | Blockage of the fallopian tube near the uterine end can be relieved by state of the art procedures available at the center. |

| | Ovarian and Fallopian Tube Cancers |
 | | It is more common for cancer to spread to a fallopian tube from elsewhere in the body (usually the ovary or endometrium) than for a new cancer to develop in the fallopian tube. |  | | Primary carcinoma of the fallopian tube is very rare, comprising only 1-2% of all gynecologic cancers. |  | | Fallopian tube cancer starts within the fallopian tubes, a pair of ducts that transport eggs from ovary to uterus. |

| | RE: fallopian tube blockages |
 | | Mainly the problem has to do with the specialized structures of the fallopian tubes, and how they function. |  | | That is, the cells making up the different sections of the tube change how they behave, depending on the presence and amounts of female hormones which keep changing during the 28-day cycles that produces ovulation. |  | | If medical science was able to come up with heart bypass surgery, why have they not tried to use a similar method to 'bypass' blocked tubes of woman who want to become pregnant? |
