Abstract

A hydrosalpinx is a condition that occurs when the fallopian tube is blocked and fills with serous or clear fluid near the ovary (distal to the uterus). The blocked tube may become substantially distended giving the tube a characteristic sausage-like or retort-like shape. The condition is often bilateral and the affected tubes may reach several centimeters in diameter. The blocked tubes cause infertility.
A fallopian tube filled with blood is a hematosalpinx, and with pus a pyosalpinx.

Keywords: Haemetosalpinx, Bicornuate uterus, Contua, Ehsre, Esge.
