How is fallopian tube hydrotubation performed?

Patient's question:

Contrast-enhanced imaging of ioversol: The uterine cavity is of normal size and regular shape. The isthmus of both fallopian tubes shows significant resistance, with the contrast agent moving slowly and with difficulty through them, gradually entering the abdominal cavity. After 20 minutes of careful observation, no contrast agent was observed remaining in either fallopian tube, confirming the presence of peritoneal coating, which appears well-diffused.
History of previous treatments and outcomes: A year ago, ectopic pregnancy with the embryo at the fimbriae was treated with an open abdominal surgery. In late March of this year, biochemical pregnancy occurred.

Doctor's answer:

Ectopic pregnancy is most easily caused by fallopian tube blockage. Early treatment is recommended. Based on the condition of the fallopian tubes, local irrigation therapy can be used. If the irrigation medication enters with difficulty or sustained irrigation is not effective, it can be decided to use wire dilation in conjunction with irrigation therapy. Wishing you good health.
For patients, if gynecological conditions are severe, immediate symptomatic treatment and proper medication should be administered. Otherwise, gynecological conditions may recur. Additionally, patients should maintain a proper diet and keep a positive mood. It is hoped that the answers to the above questions can help everyone. Thank you.
