The diagnosis of tubal cancer is sometimes complicated and delayed. For elderly women without nonspecific symptoms, especially those with obvious masses, detailed examinations, and imaging studies should be carried out in time. The treatment of tubal cancer is multi-modal. Due to the high risk of recurrence of fallopian tube cancer, the possibility of metastasis after the initial diagnosis is large, so it is very important to receive close and regular follow-up for patients with fallopian tube cancer after treatment. We suggest that more tumor centers study the possible mechanisms, metastasis patterns, biological characteristics, etc. of such patients, and at the same time efforts should be made to early differential diagnosis, and ultimately prolong the survival time of such patients.
