Primary fallopian tube carcinoma (PFTC) is a rare gynecologic neoplasm and is usually diagnosed late and presents classically with a characteristic group of symptoms. We describe a case of a 76-year-old woman who underwent TVS requested by the family physician due to unspecific pelvic pain. An adnexal mass was found with morphology associated with high levels of CA125 suggestive of a malignant tumor. During laparotomy, a mass located in the left tube was found. Histopathology confirmed PFTC. Total hysterectomy, salpingo-oophorectomy and adjuvant chemotherapy with carboplatin/paclitaxel were performed. The patient has not yet presented any signs of recurrence.
