Use of selective salpingography (SS) and fallopian tube catheterization (TC) has revolutionized the diagnosis and treatment of proximal tubal infertility.
To evaluate results of women treated for proximal tubal obstruction by selective salpingography and tubal catherization.
Selective salpingography was performed in women with proximal bilateral tubal obstructions. Follow-up ranged from 4 to 12 months.
twelve patients had been shown to have bilateral proximal obstruction of the fallopian tube. After SS/TC, patency was achieved in 8 cases. Spontaneous conceptions occurred in 4 women.
SS and TC should be used more widely because it is simple and effective in case of proximal tubal blockage.
