Primary fallopian tube adenocarcinoma presenting as a hydrosalpinx: CT appearance.
A case of adenocarcinoma of the fallopian tube that presented as a small mucosal papillary growth in a large, otherwise noncomplicated hydrosalpinx is reported. Computed tomography clearly delineated the mucosal tumor and characteristic unilateral tubular shaped adnexal mass of the hydrosalpinx which was easily distinguishable from ovarian cystic masses.
