Abstract

Cancer of the fallopian tube is a rare and difficult condition to be treated. It is often clinically simulated by ovarian epithelial cancer or primary ovarian and peritoneal carcinomas. Most of relapses in these tumors are observed in the small pelvis. Extrapelvic relapses and metastases to other organs are rather uncommon. Surgical cytoreduction and platinum-based chemotherapy are the mainstay of treatment.The authors present a rare and noteworthy clinical case of recurrence of high-grade serous carcinoma of the right fallopian tube involving the caecum dome and rectum in a 65-year-old female patient. There was demonstrated the choice of surgical treatment tactics in this clinical case that allowed obtaining a 62-month survival result.
