The fallopian tubes are an important component of the female reproductive system. If there are health problems in this area, it can often lead to infertility and pose a serious threat to physical health. As a minimally invasive diagnostic and therapeutic technique, hysteroscopy is widely used in gynecological clinical practice. So, is hysteroscopy accurate for examining fallopian tubes?
1. The accuracy of diagnosing some diseases in the fallopian tube area using hysteroscopy cannot be generalized, and it needs to be determined based on the indications. When hysteroscopy is used to examine both fallopian tubes, it can only examine the opening site, that is, the proximal end, but cannot conduct a comprehensive examination of the entire fallopian tube.
2. If hysteroscopy alone cannot make a good and accurate diagnosis when conducting a comprehensive examination of the fallopian tubes, it is necessary to combine laparoscopic exploration to make a more accurate diagnosis of whether there are adhesions, protrusions, hydrosalpinx, and other morphological changes in the surrounding tissues of the fallopian tubes.
3. In addition, there is a commonly used fallopian tube imaging technique for examining female fallopian tubes. This method involves examining under X-rays and injecting contrast medium into the uterine cavity. Then, X-rays are taken to determine whether there is blockage in both fallopian tubes of the female, and to display the specific location of the blockage. This can also help to understand whether the development of the uterus is normal. Moreover, this method can clearly and intuitively show the location of the lesion.
