| Summary: | Neoplastic lesions of the fallopian tube are rarely seen by surgical pathologists. Haemangioma of the fallopian tube is an extremely
rare benign neoplasm. A 30-year-old lady with polymenorrhea and dysmenorrhea underwent hysterectomy and bilateral salpingooophorectomy. Her left fallopian tube showed a 2mm sized solid nodule in the wall. Histopathological examination revealed a welldefined vascular lesion in the left fallopian tube, consistent with capillary haemangioma. The vascular endothelium was highlighted by
CD34 immunostaining. Our literature review has identified 10 cases of cavernous haemangioma of the fallopian tube. To the best of our
knowledge, we report the first ever case of capillary haemangioma of the fallopian tube. This is also the smallest detected haemangioma
in the fallopian tube. |
