title: [Radioactive gold treatment of primary carcinoma of the fallopian tube (author's transl)].
abstract: 20 cases of primary carcinoma of the fallopian tube from 1958 to 1974 are reported. An operation was performed in all cases. A post-operative intra-peritoneal installation of radioactive gold was done in 14 cases. 6 patients which had radioactive gold treatment survived for more than 5 years. None of the patients survived for more than 5 years who did not have radioactive gold treatment. The positive effect on treatment of carcinoma of the fallopian tube of a complete operation with post-operative intra-peritoneal administration of radioactive gold is discussed in detail.
