Core Tip
Core Tip: We present the first case of primary mesonephric adenocarcinoma (MNAC) deriving from the fallopian tube without sign of relapse or metastasis after second excision of recurrent lesions until now, which demonstrated a satisfactory response to combination chemotherapy of gemcitabine and carboplatin. MNAC originating from the fallopian tube can be very aggressive, even at early stage. Because of its sensitivity to the chemotherapy regimen, it is reasonable that combination chemotherapy of gemcitabine and carboplatin plays an important role in treatment of recurrent MNAC deriving from the fallopian tube. However, further research is needed to determine the effectiveness of this chemotherapy regimen and provide better therapeutic regimen.
