The fallopian tubes (or simply tubes) are paired tubular structures, one on either side of the uterus (womb). They link the ovaries to the uterus. In women of reproductive age, the ovaries produce ...

Accumulating evidence suggests that many ovarian high-grade serous carcinomas (HGSCs) originate in the fallopian tube. Malignant cells shed by tubal lesions can be detected by examination of ...

A new study creates a detailed 'atlas' of the various cell types and their gene activities within the highly specialized fallopian tube, paving the way for new research into infertility and other ...

Adnexal tumors are growths near the uterus. They're also known as adnexal masses. They usually form in the ovaries, which make eggs and hormones, or the fallopian tubes, which connect your uterus and ...

The p53 signature is defined as a linear, strongly p53 immunopositive segment of tubal cells spanning at least 12 consecutive secretory cell nuclei. 5 It may coexist in continuity with carcinoma, and ...

Fallopian tubes are female reproductive organs that connect the ovaries and the uterus. Every month during ovulation, which occurs roughly in the middle of a menstrual cycle, the fallopian tubes carry ...

Removing fallopian tubes during sterilization is about as safe as sterilization procedures that damage the tubes but leave them intact, a new study suggests — a finding that could help reduce some ...

Blocked fallopian tubes, or tubal occlusion, are one possible cause of infertility. There are usually no symptoms, but certain risk factors can increase the risk of developing the condition. The ...

Getting pregnant is a pretty complicated process. At the very least, a man’s sperm has to join with a woman’s egg in order to fertilize it. But sometimes that can’t happen. There are several possible ...

The fallopian tubes – also called oviducts − are part of the female reproductive system. The tubes, around 10 to 15 cm in length, connect the ovaries to the uterus and facilitate transport of the ...
