introduction: in a prospective blind study, we evaluated sonohysterography (shg) as a diagnostic tool for uterine cavity and tubal patency and compare shg with laparoscopy in tubal patency and hysterosalpyngography for uterine anomaly as gold standard methods. material and methods: 76 infertile patients undergone shg and hsg and laparoscopy and comparison between the different diagnostic techni...

conclusion hsg is considered to have a high sensitivity and specificity. hsg and laparoscopy are not alternative, but are the complementary methods in the examination of no tubal patency. results the sensitivity and specificity of hsg on bilateral tubal patency or no bilateral tubal patency were 92.1% and 85.7% respectively. the positive and negative predictive values were 97.2% and 66.7%, and ...

BACKGROUND Tubal occlusion is one of the most frequent causes of infertility in women. The evaluation of the fallopian tube is necessary to determine the management plan for infertility. The two most important diagnostic procedures which are used for the evaluation of tubal patency are hysterosalpingography (HSG) and laparoscopy. OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to compare HSG and laparos...

OBJECTIVE To assess the value of hysterosalpingography (HSG) in diagnosing tubal patency and peritubal adhesions using laparoscopy with chromopertubation as the gold standard. DESIGN Meta-analysis of 20 studies comparing HSG and laparoscopy for tubal patency and peritubal adhesions. PATIENTS Four thousand one hundred seventy-nine patients with infertility in 20 studies. INTERVENTION Hyste...

Background Hysterosalpingram (HSG) evaluation of tubal patency is typically performed in the follicular phase, but data to support this timing are lacking. Purpose To determine whether menstrual cycle phase or hormonal treatments affect observation of tubal patency during HSG. Material and Methods Ten participants underwent repeated HSG examinations: during the follicular and luteal phase of a ...

The da Vinci(®) robotic surgical system has been used more often in recent years for tubal anastomosis (TA) and has been reported to have an increased operative time. A one-stitch technique has been used for the reanastomosis step in laparoscopic TA. To date, publications on robotically-assisted TA (RATA) describe an anastomotic step with multiple (usually four) sutures placed. This retrospecti...

Establishing tubal patency is necessary for the treatment of subfertility. Hysterosalpingo contrast sonography (HyCoSy) is one of recommended screening test but is expensive. Vaginal sonographic hydrotubation using agitated saline and size 8 Foley catheter can be used to reduce the cost. The objective of the study is to determine the diagnostic accuracy of vaginal sonographic hydrotubation usin...

BACKGROUND Hysterosalpingography (HSG) is the most frequently used diagnostic measure for simultaneously determining uterine abnormalities and tubal status among subfertile women. Despite several broader advantages such as availability and increased experience, the subjectivity involved during administration of the HSG procedure itself, and necessary imaging review, decreases the reliability an...

AIMS To evaluate the feasibility and the reliability of hysterosalpingo-foam sonography (HyFoSy) using gel foam in the assessment of tubal patency. METHODS Nonrandomized, observational, academic and single-center study of 20 women being investigated because of subfertility and scheduled for a laparoscopy with chromopertubation. A detailed description of HyFoSy with a newly developed gel foam ...

background: ectopic pregnancy is one of the pathologic entities that it destroys the fallopian tube and impairs the future pregnancy. there are different medical and surgical therapies in order the treatment and reserve of fertility. the aim of this report is discuss a case of successful intrauterine after management of ectopic pregnancy with local injection of kcl in an infertile pcod patient....
