AB  - Here we report on histopathological findings from 46 cases of primary Fallopian 
      tube carcinoma (PFTC) which were diagnosed and/or consulted in the Department of 
      Pathology, University Medical School of Wroclaw between 1982 and 1997. PFTCs can 
      be classified according to the WHO International Classification of Ovarian 
      Tumors. Reexamination of glass slides revealed at least five histological types 
      of PFTC. Our results indicated better prognosis in patients with primary 
      Fallopian tube endometrioid carcinoma rather than with serous carcinoma. Patients 
      with PFTC expressing urothelial differentiation also show better prognosis. These 
      findings confirm greater usefulness of primary ovarian carcinoma classification 
      in the evaluation of the primary salpingeal carcinomas. The problems encountered 
      in diagnosis, prognosis and therapy of PFTC are discussed.
