What are the causes of hydrosalpinx in women?

Patient's question:

What are the causes of hydrosalpinx in women?

Doctor's answer:

1. Salpingitis with pus accumulation: Generally refers to the process where pus cells and necrotic tissues within the lumen are digested and cleared by cells, gradually transforming the pus into clear, watery fluid, leading to hydrosalpinx.
2. Long-term tubal ligation: Long-term tubal ligation can also cause hydrosalpinx. Some cases of hydrosalpinx are not actually caused by tubal inflammation but rather occur after tubal sterilization surgery.
