title: [Carcinoma of fallopian tubes. Presentation of 2 cases].
abstract: The carcinoma of the Fallopian tube is at the present time, one of the most rare gynecologic tumors, representing approximately less than 1% in world literature, being in our experience of 0.15%. We presented two cases of adenocarcinoma of the Fallopian tube, seen in a lapse of 25 years, not diagnosed preoperatorily with the clinical trial of abnormal bleeding, negative biopsy of endometrium and adnexal mass. As it is written in the literature, the diagnosis is rarely established previous to the operation and it usually corresponded to an adenocarcinoma. The classification of the FIGO for the stage is used. In relation to the survival follow-up: the stages I and II present 60% approximately of survival to the five years and it is suggested radiotherapy additional to the surgery; however, according to some authors this doesn't improve the survival.
