Serous papillary cystadenofibromas (SPCAFs) of the fallopian tube are very rare benign tumors of the female genital tract. They are usually asymptomatic and are found incidentally. Until now, only 18 cases of this tumor have been reported in the world literature. We report a case of SPCAF of the left fallopian tube in a 30-year-old female who presented with a large abdominal mass and pain. On computed tomography, a diagnosis of ovarian neoplasm was given. However, during surgery the tumor was found to arise from the fallopian tube and was treated with tubal cystectomy with sparing of the ovary. We present this unique case on account of its rarity, unusual presentation, and huge size along with a short review of literature.
输卵管浆液性乳头状囊腺纤维瘤(SPCAFs)是女性生殖道非常罕见的良性肿瘤。它们通常无症状,多为偶然发现。迄今为止,世界文献中仅报道过18例这种肿瘤。我们报告一例30岁女性的左侧输卵管SPCAF,该患者表现为腹部巨大肿块和疼痛。计算机断层扫描诊断为卵巢肿瘤。然而,手术中发现肿瘤起源于输卵管,遂行保留卵巢的输卵管囊肿切除术。鉴于该病例的罕见性、不寻常表现、巨大尺寸以及简短的文献复习,我们展示此独特病例。
