Patient's question:
What are the treatment methods for fallopian tube blockage? What are the most cost-effective ones? Can general regional hospitals perform these treatments?Doctor's answer:
Fallopian tube blockage requires additional treatment based on the location of the blockage. The optimal treatment for blockages in the interstitial part and isthmus of the fallopian tube is transcatheter recanalization under X-ray, with a recanalization rate of over 90% and a postoperative pregnancy rate of 50%. For ampullary blockage, there is no effective clinical treatment, and in vitro fertilization (IVF) can be considered. For fimbrial obstruction (hydrosalpinx), fimbrialoplasty can be performed, which includes laparoscopic and open surgical approaches. The postoperative pregnancy rate is over 20%. In fact, having gynecological diseases is not, patients should believe that they can overcome the illness. As long as symptoms are detected early and treated accordingly, the chances of alleviating the condition and recovering are very high.
