Fallopian tube serous adenocarcinoma with dizziness as the initial symptom: a case report

Abstract

Paroxysmal vertigo as the presenting symptom of a fallopian tube tumor is rare among patients. We present a patient who was finally diagnosed with fallopian tube serous adenocarcinoma with subacute cerebellar degeneration. We analyzed the patients’ clinical, pathological, and imaging data. We conclude that the possibility of paraneoplastic neurological syndrome should be considered when conventional treatment is ineffective for a fallopian tube tumor and other neurological diseases are excluded.
