Disease description:

I've been trying to conceive for a long time, but have not been successful. Today, after going to the hospital for an examination, I found out that my fallopian tubes are partially blocked. This condition can easily lead to infertility. What should I do about partially blocked fallopian tubes?

Tubal patency with poor flow requires treatment using selective tubal catheterization and recanalization. This method combines angiography with interventional techniques, using a guidewire under X-ray guidance to clear the obstructed site, followed by a post-procedure imaging film to evaluate tubal patency after intervention and assess recovery. Clearing the obstruction with a guidewire under X-ray can improve female fertility, reduce the risk of ectopic pregnancy, and is particularly effective for proximal tubal disease.
