Patient's question:
Additionally, two more were administered, and then there was no pregnancy for about four years. Today, exactly three days after the menstrual period ended, I underwent a contrast examination. The results were as follows:Perspective view: No obvious abnormal density shadows were observed in the pelvic area.
Contrast view:
- Uterine and fallopian tube contrast examination: Routine procedure: After injecting an adequate amount of iohexol contrast medium, images were taken:
- The uterus is well-filled,, centrally located, with natural size and shape, and smooth inner wall and margins.
- The right fallopian tube showed intermittent visualization in various sections, with tortuous course and uneven thickness.
- The left fallopian tube was faintly visualized after pressure injection of contrast medium, but the entire length could not be displayed. The pelvic area showed no contrast medium diffusion.
So, I am wondering, how serious is my condition? If I proceed to...
Doctor's answer:
If the fallopian tubes are blocked, the cause must be identified first. Blockage of the fallopian tubes can be caused by various factors such as infection, cysts, etc. It is also necessary to determine the location of the blockage—whether it is in the proximal, middle, or distal part. Different causes and locations require different treatment methods. The corresponding treatment methods include interventional therapy under ultrasound guidance, fluid infusion, integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine treatment, and combined hysteroscopic and laparoscopic treatment. The specific treatment method to be used must be determined after examination and based on your individual condition to formulate an appropriate treatment plan.
