Primary neuroendocrine tumors of the fallopian tube are extremely rare with a few reported cases of high-grade neuroendocrine carcinoma and a single report of a carcinoid tumor arising in a teratoma. We report 4 cases of probable primary neuroendocrine tumors of the fallopian tube (2 carcinoid tumors/low-grade neuroendocrine tumors and 2 high-grade neuroendocrine carcinomas) in patients aged 49 to 71. These represent the first reported cases of primary tubal carcinoid tumor unassociated with a teratoma. We review the published literature regarding primary neuroendocrine tumors of the fallopian tube and speculate on the possible histogenesis of these neoplasms.
原发性输卵管神经内分泌肿瘤极为罕见，仅有少数高级别神经内分泌癌的病例报道，以及一例畸胎瘤中发生类癌肿瘤的单独报道。我们报告了4例年龄在49至71岁之间的可能的原发性输卵管神经内分泌肿瘤（2例类癌肿瘤/低级别神经内分泌肿瘤和2例高级别神经内分泌癌）。这些是首次报道的与畸胎瘤无关的原发性输卵管类癌肿瘤病例。我们回顾了关于原发性输卵管神经内分泌肿瘤的已发表文献，并推测了这些肿瘤可能的组织发生学。
