Fallopian Tube Papilloma: A Systematic Review of Case Reports.

Fallopian tube papilloma (FTP) is one of the benign lesions of the oviduct and is a rare proliferative epithelial lesion. Low incidence and underreporting of the disease limit our knowledge of these lesions. These lesions cause a diagnostic dilemma and need to be differentiated from several other conditions of the fallopian tubes both benign and malignant. Fallopian tube papilloma may lead to tubal obstruction and can be a cause of subfertility, ectopic gestation, or mass lesions in the fallopian tubes and hence should be considered as an important differential while managing these women. A high index of suspicion is required, and the final diagnosis can only be made after histopathological results. The reporting of such lesions is important to know the true prevalence of these tumors and to increase our knowledge about these benign neoplasms. This systematic review of case reports was done to enhance knowledge regarding the etiology, natural course, complication, and recurrence of FTP. An electronic search of Scopus, Pubmed, Embase, Web of Science, Google Scholar, and other databases was conducted for case reports and case series published in English from inception till January 2024.
