Malignant neoplasms of the fallopian tube are rare and occur when abnormal cells in the tissue of the fallopian tube divide uncontrollably and form a tumor. risk factors for the development of fallopian tube cancer include a family history of cancer, smoking, and a history of pelvic inflammatory disease.

Malignant neoplasm of the fallopian tube is caused by an abnormal growth of cells in the fallopian tube that can spread to other parts of the body. this growth is caused by mutations in the dna of the cells, which can be triggered by environmental factors such as radiation, hormones, and chemicals. these mutations cause the cells to divide and grow rapidly, forming a tumor which can invade other parts of the body. in some cases, the tumor can spread to other organs, such as the ovaries, uterus, and other reproductive organs.
