Abstract
The fallopian tubes named after Gabriele Falloppio (also spelled Falloppia), a 16th-century physician and surgeon, are appendages of the uterus located on either side at the superior portion of the uterine cavity. They are 10 cm long muscular tubes originating at the uterine cornua and opening distally into the peritoneal cavity. Each tube is divisible into four parts and run laterally within the mesosalpinx.
