The p53 signature is defined as a linear, strongly p53 immunopositive segment of tubal cells spanning at least 12 consecutive secretory cell nuclei. 5 It may coexist in continuity with carcinoma, and ...

A new way of growing Fallopian tube cells in culture is expected to give a boost to our understanding and prevention of female genital diseases, such as infertility, inflammatory disease, and ovarian ...

Screening for tumor cells in the fallopian tubes of women at high-risk for ovarian cancer may help detect the cancer years before it develops further, suggests a new study. The work traces the origins ...

Genetic studies by scientists in the U.S. suggest that the most common form of ovarian cancer actually starts in the fallopian tubes and takes about 6.5 years to progress to high-grade serous ovarian ...

Fallopian tubes are female reproductive organs that connect the ovaries and the uterus. Every month during ovulation, which occurs roughly in the middle of a menstrual cycle, the fallopian tubes carry ...

THE presence of ectopic pregnancy in a supernumerary fallopian tube is sufficiently unusual to warrant the report of a case. Novak 1 states that "duplication in the form of a third tube is very rare." ...

Blocked fallopian tubes, or tubal occlusion, are one possible cause of infertility. There are usually no symptoms, but certain risk factors can increase the risk of developing the condition. The ...

Salpingectomy (sal-pin-JEK-tuh-me) is the surgical removal of one or both fallopian tubes. After this procedure, getting pregnant is usually more difficult. There are several reasons to get a ...
