Pathology Outlines - p53 Differentiate serous tubal intraepithelial carcinoma (STIC) from reactive changes in epithelium of the fallopian tube or fimbriae, although serous tubal intraepithelial lesions may also have aberrant p53 phenotype and histologic differentiation is important (Int J Gynecol Pathol 2011;30:417, Int J Gynecol Pathol 2021;40:419)
Pathology Outlines - WHO classification Most high grade serous carcinomas of the ovary arise at the fimbriated end of the fallopian tube from a precursor lesion known as serous tubal intraepithelial carcinoma (STIC) (Pathology 2015;47:423, Mod Pathol 2015;28:1101) Undifferentiated carcinoma of the fallopian tube is no longer a separate category

Pathology Outlines - High grade serous carcinoma Fallopian tubes - Serous carcinoma High stage with pelvic extension or positive peritoneal cytology To call primary in fallopian tube, should arise from mucosa (endosalpinx), have tubal histologic pattern, involve the lumen, uterus and ovaries must be normal or have foci of malignancy that resemble metastases or independent primaries; if tubal wall is involved, should detect a transition
