Salpingectomy

The fallopian tube is an important internal reproductive organ of a woman, so if the fallopian tube is damaged or a congenital developmental malformation can directly affect a woman's conception and cause infertility. However, for the treatment of female infertility caused by fallopian tubes, salpingectomy is generally not used in clinical practice. However, for severe tubal effusion, tubal adhesions and other lesions, salpingectomy is still required, and bilateral salpingectomy is sometimes required . If patients with tubal infertility have severe pelvic adhesions and ovarian fallopian tube adhesions; huge hydrosalpinx or fallopian tube twisting, and the tissue is no longer viable; one side of the fallopian tube is normal, and those with severe fallopian tube disease have to undergo salpingectomy . Is that a salpingectomy, especially for women who have bilateral salpingectomy? Actually, this is not the case. With the advent of assisted reproduction technology and continuous development and improvement, the function of the fallopian tube is no longer irreplaceable. Within the scope of the indication, women who cannot restore fallopian tube function or have no fallopian tube can be treated with artificial fertility treatment to achieve their fertility desire. In addition to these serious fallopian tube lesions, salpingectomy is still mainly used for tubal pregnancy, especially for emergency treatment of internal bleeding with shock. When a fallopian tube pregnancy ruptures, bleeding cannot be controlled, or women with more than 2 ectopic pregnancy on the same side of the fallopian tube, usually one side salpingectomy is needed. However, some women with contralateral fallopian tubes also need to be treated according to the patient's condition, requirements and lesions, and bilateral fallopian tube resection if necessary. In short, whether it is a miscarriage or ruptured tubal pregnancy, or one or both tubal resections can stop bleeding in time and save lives.
