Fallopian tube cancer is rare and accounts for 0.3-1% of all gynaecological cancers. We describe a case of undiagnosed fallopian tube cancer presenting as a swollen inguinal lymph node and later diagnosed with PET-CT. Final histology revealed a serous adenocarcinoma of the fallopian tube with metastases to both ovaries and one inguinal lymph node. Recent studies suggest that serous borderline tumour of the ovaries originate from the fallopian tubes. The present case confirms this hypothesis. PET-CT is an important tool in diagnosing ovarian and fallopian tube cancers.
输卵管癌很罕见，占所有妇科癌症的0.3 - 1%。我们描述了一例未被诊断出的输卵管癌病例，该病例最初表现为腹股沟淋巴结肿大，后来通过PET - CT确诊。最终组织学检查显示为输卵管浆液性腺癌，已转移至双侧卵巢和一个腹股沟淋巴结。最近的研究表明，卵巢浆液性交界性肿瘤起源于输卵管。本病例证实了这一假说。PET - CT是诊断卵巢癌和输卵管癌的重要工具。
