These are the treatment options available for Fallopian tube blockage. It is available in many parts of india. 1. Tuboplasty is a surgical technique used to restore patency to the tubes and thus possibly normal function. Different types of tuboplasty have been developed and can be applied by laparoscopy or laparotomy. They include lysis of adhesions, fimbrioplasty (repairing the fimbriated end of the tubes), salpingostomy (creating an opening for the tube), resection and reananstomosis (removing a piece of blocked tube and reuniting the remaining patent parts of the tube), and tubal reimplantation (reconnecting the tube to the uterus). Results of tubal surgery are inversely related to damage that exists prior to surgery. Development of adhesions remains a problem. Patients with operated tubes are at increased risk for ectopic pregnancy. Surgical repair of fallopian tubes that have been occluded by a sterilization procedure generally have good success rates provided enough healthy tubal tissue is present for the surgeon to perform a tubal reversal. 2. Hysteroscopic tubal recanalisation helps overcome proximal tubal occlusion 3. In vitro fertilization is used to overcome tubal infertility as it is more cost-effective, less invasive, and results are immediate. (See IVF). After stimulation of ovarian follicles, egg cells are removed via a sonographic directed vaginal puncture into the ovary, these eggs are fertilized outside the body, and the resultant embryo placed transcervically into the uterus; - the tubes are bypassed in this process. While IVF therapy has largely replaced tubal surgery in the treatment of infertility, the presence of hydrosalpinx is an detriment to IVF success. It has been recommended that prior to IVF, laparoscopic surgery should be done to either block or remove hydrosalpinges as the fluid in the tube can leak into the uterine cavity having detrimental effects on implantation of the pregnancy. The affected tube or tubes are sometimes completely removed or cut free from the uterus to improve the success rates of IVF attempts.
