Article - Fallopian Tube Removal May Help Prevent Most Common Ovarian Cancer
“In the study, the researchers genetically sequenced multiple tumor samples from nine patients with HGSOC who also had lesions in their fallopian tubes, which had been removed. The researchers found that most of the genetic alterations present in the patients’ ovarian tumors were also expressed in the fallopian lesions, which had formed years earlier. Strongly tied to the development of HGSOC, they found, were cancer-associated alterations to the P53 gene in the tubes, and the lesions, known as serous tubal intraepithelial carcinomas.”
