Özet
We present a fallopian tube serous papillary cystadenofibroma detected during surgery for a persistent adnexial mass, examine the immunohistochemical profile, and discuss the origin of this rare neoplasm. A 33 year old Turkish woman presented with mild pelvic pain with duration of two years. Current ultrasonographic examination revealed a 95x 68 milimeters dimensioned thin walled paraovarian cyst without solid components. On pathological examination serous papillary cystadenofibroma of tuba uterina. Cystadenofibromas of the fallopian tube are mostly asymptomatic and diagnosed incidentally. Despite their benign nature, surgical excision is the choice of therapy because of the possible malign transformation and emergent situations like cyst torsion or rupture. © 2010, Scottish Medical Journal.
