Abstract:
Purpose To study the clinicopathological and immunohistochemical features, carcinogenesis and differential diagnosis of female pelvic serous carcinoma. Methods The clinical data, macroscopic and microscopic features and immunostaining results of 20 patients with pelvic serous carcinoma were studied, and some associated literatures were reviewed. Results 20 cases of PSC aged from 23 to 87, with the mean age being 58. 9. PSC may occur in fallopian tube, ovary and peritoneum, while they were referred to hospital because of abdominal distention, abdominal pain or pelvic mass. The tumor often invasive pelvic organs diffusely when they were diag-nosed, so, the primary site were difficultly determined. Usually, the primary focus of serous carcinoma of fallopian tube is small and easily planted in pelvic. The patients with ovarian serous carcinoma or peritoneal serous carcinoma had serous tubal intraepithelial car-cinoma at the mean time. Conclusions The tubal epithelial cells may be the major source of PSC. About the specimen of PSC, we need check the fallopian tube carefully to determine the primary site, and make differential diagnosis with peritoneal malignant mesothe-lioma and metastatic carcinoma from other sites than pelvic when it diffusely invasive peritoneum.
