Malignant mixed Müllerian tumor of the fallopian tube: report of a case with 5-year survival.
The literature reveals a total of only 25 cases of malignant mixed Müllerian tumor of the fallopian tube. Another case is presented; the patient is well and without evidence of disease more than 5 years after the operative treatment. She also received postoperatively adjuvant cytostatic treatment with cyclophosphamide, vincristine, adriamycin, and external radiation therapy. An aggressive mode of treatment is recommended in this rare disease due to the usually very poor prognosis.
