AB  - OBJECTIVES: To review the characteristic ultrasound features of primary fallopian 
      tube carcinoma (PFTC) and its relationship to the clinical history in order to 
      establish specific findings useful for the preoperative diagnosis. METHOD: An 
      extensive review of the current literature was done on Medline via PubMed by 
      using the following keywords: "primary fallopian tube cancer", "tubal cancer", 
      "adnexal malignancy mass" and "ultrasound". RESULTS: PFTC corresponds to complex, 
      sausage-shaped structures or cystic adnexal masses. A thick and an irregular 
      capsule are in favour of a malignant lesion. Three-dimensional ultrasound is 
      superior to 2D ultrasound for the detection of tubal wall irregularities such as 
      papillary projections or pseudosepta who were suggestive of tubal malignancy and 
      allows a better assessment of the extent of tumor infiltration through the 
      capsule. Neovascularization with low resistance indices are typical of tubal 
      malignancy. Three-dimensional power Doppler sonography acutely detected 
      structural abnormalities of the malignant tumor vessels which are randomly 
      dispersed within the papillary projections. Intra-uterine collection and 
      peritumoral fluid are often found but ascite could be also an indirect proof of 
      peritoneal carcinosis. CONCLUSION: Sausage-shaped structures or cystic adnexal 
      masses associated with imaging findings such as papillary projections and 
      neovascularization with low resistance indices are in favour of PFTC. A 
      standardized terminology, high-frequency and 3D power Doppler could improve 
      diagnostic performance by allowing a better assessment of tubal wall and chaotic 
      vessels architecture of these tumors.
