Fetal trophoblast populations in ectopic fallopian tube pregnancy have been characterised using immunohistochemical techniques. The distribution of trophoblast membrane antigens, low molecular weight epithelial cytokeratins, epithelial membrane antigen, human chorionic gonadotrophin, human placental lactogen, and pregnancy-specific beta 1-glycoprotein in ectopic tubal pregnancy appears similar to that reported in normal early intrauterine pregnancy. These findings emphasise the potential importance of ectopic pregnancy in the study of human gestation.

Fallopian Tube Papilloma: A Systematic Review of Case Reports.

Niger Med J

Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Army Hospital, Chandigarh, Punjab, India.

Fallopian tube papilloma (FTP) is one of the benign lesions of the oviduct and is a rare proliferative epithelial lesion. Low incidence and underreporting of the disease limit our knowledge of these lesions. These lesions cause a diagnostic dilemma and need to be differentiated from several other conditions of the fallopian tubes both benign and malignant.

Background: Ectopic pregnancies represent a potentially life-threatening medical emergency, with 95% being tubal. This meta-analysis aimed to identify early predictors for single-dose methotrexate (MTX) treatment failure in tubal pregnancies.

Methods: A literature search was conducted across several databases from their inception to December 2023, with references in the selected studies manually reviewed.
