Objectives The aim of the study was to investigate the rare type of malignant tumours of women^’s genitals for identifying optimal methods of prevention, detection and special management of fallopian tube carcinomas.

Methods The rate of appearance of fallopian tube carcinomas varies between 0,13% and 2,8. During 48 years (1969–2017) 15707 operations of malignant tumours were performed at our clinic. Diagnosis of fallopian tube carcinoma was confirmed only in 56(0,36%) cases and every time during the operations. 18 patients (32,1%) underwent operations with the diagnosis of ovaries tumours; 12(21,4%) - with carcinoma corpus uterus and 26(46,4%) - with uterine and ovarian tumours. The youngest patient was 34, while the oldest - 78 years old. Patients were aged from 30 to 39 (5,5%), 18,2% were up to 40–49, 41,8% - from 50 to 59; 27,3% from 60 to 69 and 7,3% were over 70.

Results According to classification, offered by us, I stage was diagnosed in 19(33,9%) patients, II stage - in 5(8,9%); III stage - in 29(51,9%), IV stage - in 4(7,1%). The tactics of management of fallopian tube carcinoma is operation-chemotherapy or operation-radiotherapy, 49 patients underwent post-operative chemotherapy, 7 patients had radiotherapy.

Conclusions The evaluation of remote results revealed, that of 56 patients 14 died within the first year following the operation. 5 years survival rate did not exceed 30%.Low incidence of fallopian tube carcinomas in some cases is explained by the fact that they are attributed to advanced forms of ovarian carcinomas.
