Patient's question:
My wife hasn't had any reaction in her stomach in these years since her marriage, but our family has been urging me to have a child and settle down. When I took her to the hospital for a check-up, I was surprised to find that she had inflammation in her fallopian tubes.Doctor's answer:
Salpingitis is secondary to inflammation of surrounding organs or tissues of the fallopian tube, especially when inflammation and adhesions form around the fimbriae of the fallopian tube or the ovaries, preventing the fimbriae from drawing the released egg cells into the tube for fertilization with sperm, such as in purulent appendicitis or tuberculous peritonitis. Patients who have previously had adnexitis, purulent appendicitis, tuberculous peritonitis, pulmonary tuberculosis, endometriosis, incomplete miscarriage, fever, abdominal pain, and puerperal infection after artificial abortion, as well as those with sexually transmitted diseases like gonorrhea, and individuals with fallopian tube malformations, may all lead to abnormal fallopian tube function and result in tubal infertility.
