title: [Carcinoma of the fallopian tube. Clinical analysis of 40 cases].
abstract: The results of clinical analysis of 40 cases of primary carcinoma of the fallopian tube are presented. All patients were treated with surgery and post operative external beam irradiation. Overall 5 years survival was 37% and symptom free survival 21%. The influence of following prognostic factors on the results of treatment had been evaluated: clinical stage, histologic grading and depth of infiltration of fallopian tube wall. Only the depth of infiltration proved to be statistically significant negative prognostic factor. The main cause of treatment failure was the intraperitonal dissemination of the disease. The results of treatment of recurrences was only palliative. No long term survivors were noted.
