Prognostic value of hysterosalpingography after salpingostomy in patients with hydrosalpinx

Abstract

To assess whether post-hysterosalpingography evaluation was associated with pregnancy rate and to identify independent risk factors for pregnancy success after salpingostomy in patients with hydrosalpinx. A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 47 patients diagnosed with hydrosalpingography (HSG) in our hospital from 2015 to 2018. These patients received laparoscopic surgery and another salpingography within 2 months after surgery. According to the fallopian tube conditions evaluated by HSG before and after surgery, the patients could be divided into two groups. According to the pregnancy rate and postoperative HSG of patients with hydrosalpinx after laparoscopy, the total pregnancy rate of the tubal improved group was 65.62%, while that of the non-improved group was 20%, with statistical significance (p < 0.05). We found that hysterosalpingography after salpingostomy in patients with hydrosalpinx can provide reference for clinical treatment and improve the prognosis of patients.
