Patient's question:
Previously, a careful examination revealed hydrosalpinx. Now, you want to have a follow-up check. Which tests are best for a thorough examination of hydrosalpinx?Doctor's answer:
The situation you mentioned, I have already known. Hysterosalpingography, magnetic resonance imaging, and laparoscopic examination. 1. Magnetic resonance imaging: Hydrosalpinx can be identified on MRI, with fluid-filled dark areas, which can confirm the acute phase of inflammation. This includes irregular fluid-filled dark areas on one or both sides of the uterus, sausage-like shapes, and abnormal echoes. 2. Hysterosalpingography: This is an effective method for examining the patency of the fallopian tubes. It is non-invasive and causes minimal pain, and breastfeeding can continue after the procedure. 3. Laparoscopy: This method can provide a definitive diagnosis of hydrosalpinx and clarify the condition of the fimbriae and adhesive conditions on three sides. It is important to go to a regular hospital for thorough examination and diagnosis, actively cooperate with the doctor's treatment, and avoid delaying the condition.
