Forty patients with primary tubal cancer were treated at the Middlesex and Mount Vernon Hospitals between 1951 and 1981. Actuarial 5-year survival was seen in 68% of 10 Stage I cases, 39% of 17 Stage II cases, and 21% of 11 Stage III cases, and this experience is consistent with other reported postwar series. The disease was found to exhibit some similarity to ovarian cancer in terms of its mode of spread and response to radiation and cytotoxic agents. Transcoelomic spread was identified as the major cause of treatment failure, and management proposals have been structured around its detection and treatment.
1951年至1981年间，米德尔塞克斯医院和弗农山医院共收治了40例原发性输卵管癌患者。10例I期病例中有68%、17例II期病例中有39%、11例III期病例中有21%实现了精算5年生存率，这一情况与战后其他报告系列一致。研究发现，该疾病在扩散方式以及对放疗和细胞毒性药物的反应方面与卵巢癌存在一些相似之处。经腹腔扩散被确定为治疗失败的主要原因，治疗方案围绕其检测和治疗制定。
