A 38-year-old nulligravida woman who visited our clinic for infertility counseling had mild abdominal discomfort and a palpable mass in the lower abdomen. Multiple examinations were performed. Preoperatively, we considered that the patient had teratoma or teratocarcinoma of the left ovary. On exploratory laparotomy, we found that she had a mass with protuberances and a bulbous projection at one surface that was attached to the fimbrial end of the left fallopian tube. A histopathological examination showed a mature cystic teratoma that arose from the fimbrial end of the fallopian tube. Obstetricians should be aware of this abnormality. Early detection of this abnormality is advantageous for infertility counseling and planning of less invasive surgery in the hospital.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/0300060519882197","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,11,5]],"date-time":"2019-11-05T02:46:52Z","timestamp":1572922012000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Mature cystic teratoma arising from the fimbrial end of the left fallopian tube. a case report"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"48","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7887-1004","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Szu-Yuan","family":"Chou","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Center for Reproductive Medicine and Sciences, Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Taipei Medical University Hospital, Taipei"},{"name":"Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, School of Medicine, College of Medicine, Taipei Medical University, Taipei"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Chi-Huang","family":"Chen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Center for Reproductive Medicine and Sciences, Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Taipei Medical University Hospital, Taipei"},{"name":"Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, School of Medicine, College of Medicine, Taipei Medical University, Taipei"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Shang-Yu","family":"Tzeng","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Center for Reproductive Medicine and Sciences, Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Taipei Medical University Hospital, Taipei"},{"name":"Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, School of Medicine, College of Medicine, Taipei Medical University, Taipei"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yu-Ching","family":"Wen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Urology, Wan Fang Hospital, Taipei Medical University, Taipei"},{"name":"Department of Urology, School of Medicine, College of Medicine, Taipei Medical University, Taipei"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ming-Cheih","family":"Lin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Lian-E Pathologic Center, Chung Shan Hospital, Taipei"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Chii-Ruey","family":"Tzeng","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Center for Reproductive Medicine and Sciences, Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Taipei Medical University Hospital, Taipei"},{"name":"Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, School of Medicine, College of Medicine, Taipei Medical University, Taipei"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2019,11,4]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-0300060519882197","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3109\/01443615.2012.731452"},{"key":"bibr2-0300060519882197","first-page":"247","volume":"52","author":"Ingec M","year":"2007","journal-title":"J Reprod Med"},{"key":"bibr3-0300060519882197","first-page":"583021","volume":"2015","author":"Sari ME","year":"2015","journal-title":"Case Rep Obstet Gynecol"},{"key":"bibr4-0300060519882197","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0301-2115(99)00193-1"},{"key":"bibr5-0300060519882197","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.4103\/0974-1208.130797"},{"key":"bibr6-0300060519882197","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.14260\/jemds\/2014\/2259"},{"key":"bibr7-0300060519882197","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1148\/radiographics.21.2.g01mr09475"}],"container-title":["Journal of International Medical Research"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1177\/0300060519882197","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/full-xml\/10.1177\/0300060519882197","content-type":"application\/xml","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1177\/0300060519882197","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2026,4,29]],"date-time":"2026-04-29T10:50:42Z","timestamp":1777459842000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/10.1177\/0300060519882197"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2019,11,4]]},"references-count":7,"journal-issue":{"issue":"2","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2020,2]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1177\/0300060519882197"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/0300060519882197","relation":{},"ISSN":["0300-0605","1473-2300"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0300-0605","type":"print"},{"value":"1473-2300","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2019,11,4]]},"article-number":"0300060519882197"}}
