    Abstract:
    Carcinoma of the fallopian tube is the least frequent tumor of the female genital tract. During a 27 year period, 34 patients with adenocarcinoma of the fallopian tube were treated at the University of Michigan Medical Center. Eight of 34 of the patients were found to have early second primary tumors during the work-up. The over-all two year and five year survival rates were 52 and 20 per cent, respectively. Results of our review of this group of patients would indicate that postoperative irradiation of the pelvis with more than 50 Grey in five weeks increased the five year survival rate of patients with disease confined to the fallopian tube.
