Abstract

Objectives: To estimate the usefulness of hysteroscopy (HSC) and hysterosalpingography (HSG) examination on a retrospective study.<br />Design: Canulisation and morphology of ovarian tube detected during HSG and reactivity of uterine tubal ostia observed in HSC were compared.<br />Material and Methods: The results of HSG and HSC examination performed on 125 young infertile women whom the tubal uterine factor of infertility was suspected were analyzed 250 ovarian tubes, after previous selection were taken into consideration. The analysis had a retrospective character.<br />Results: The analyzed group of women were divided into 3 group which differed from each other in reactivate of uterine ostia of the ovarian tubes. The first group first with correct reactivity of tubal ostia was the largest. The authors observed canulisation, which was the best in the first group and morphologic changes in the internal structure of the ovarian tubes. The highest percentage of these changes were observed in group three with unreactive uterine ostia.<br />Conclusions: The HSG and HSC examination are supplementary examinations. The use of both methods together increases their diagnostic value and gives a more correct estimation of tubal status.
