Patient's question:
I and my wife have recently been considering having a child. My colleague told me that it's best to get a pre-pregnancy check-up before having a child. So yesterday, we went for a thorough check-up and found that my wife has a condition called hydrosalpinx in the fimbriae of the fallopian tubes. However, we know very little about this condition. For this reason, we would like to consult a doctor: How is hydrosalpinx in the fimbriae of the fallopian tubes treated?Doctor's answer:
The fallopian tube can be divided into four parts: the isthmus, the interstitial part, the ampulla, and the fimbriae. After the egg is released, it waits in the ampulla of the fallopian tube for sperm to fertilize it. If there is an accumulation of fluid in the fimbriae, the egg cannot enter the ampulla, which can lead to infertility. The main treatments currently available are medication and surgical treatment.
