A case of primary carcinoma of the fallopian tube with coexistent tuberculosis has been presented, and previously reported cases in the literature reviewed. These cases represent a rare occurrence where the diagnosis might be missed without a thorough pathologic evaluation. Clinicians should maintain an index of suspicion for fallopian tube carcinoma in perimenopausal or postmenopausal women with menometrorrhagia who fail to respond to hormonal therapy and a D and C. The finding of a tuboovarian abscess in a postmenopausal woman should also cause concern for tubal carcinoma, as it is usually a disease of menarcheal women. Similarly, a possibility of granulomatous salpingitis should always be borne in mind in the differential diagnosis of inflammatory diseases of the fallopian tube.
