Malignant mixed müllerian tumor of the fallopian tube
Abstract
Malignant mixed müllerian tumor of the fallopian tube is an extremely rare neoplasm, with less than 30 cases reported. Clinical signs and symptoms are usually nonspecific and include lower abdominal pain, fever, and vaginal bleeding. The age at diagnosis varies from 14 to 76 years, with a mean of 55 years. Prognosis is poor, with only one woman surviving more than five years. Surgery is the treatment of choice, although chemotherapy may be of some benefit.
