Endosalpingiosis of the Peritoneum

RONALD E. BURMEISTER, MD, ROBERT E. FECHNER, MD and ROBERT R. FRANKLIN, MD, FACOG

From the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology and of Pathology, Baylor University College of Medicine and The Methodist Hospital, Houston, Tex

Abstract

Two examples of ectopic tubal epithelium in the pelvic peritoneum are described and illustrated. One was in association with bilateral ovarian serous cystadenocarcinoma and the other with endometriosis. The several theories of the pathogenesis of endosalpingiosis are reviewed, but the one involving metaplasia of the multipotential peritoneal cells is presented as the most acceptable.
