Bilateral primary fallopian tube carcinoma with the classical clinical features: a case report

Bilateral primary fallopian tube carcinoma is a rare diagnosis in our gynaecological practice. Very often, the diagnosis is mistaken for an ovarian carcinoma or a tubo-ovarian mass. A correct, preoperative diagnosis is made only in 4% of the cases. This is due to the nonspecific symptoms. The Latzko's triad of a watery vaginal discharge, a colicky lower abdominal pain and a pelvic mass is typical of a fallopian tube carcinoma, but this triad is noted only in less than 15% of the patients. Here, we are reporting such a case where the patient presented with all the classical features of a primary fallopian tube carcinoma. This case is also being reported for it's extreme rarity.
