What is the success rate of fallopian tube unblocking surgery?

Whether the function of the fallopian tube is normal affects women's conception. Many female infertility is mainly caused by fallopian tube blockage. In order to be able to get pregnant smoothly, the fallopian tube needs to be unblocked. Since many women do not know much about this aspect, they are very concerned about the success rate. So, what is the success rate of fallopian tube unblocking surgery? Let’s take a closer look at it below.

Inflammation can damage the fallopian tube mucosa and form scars, causing narrowing or obstruction of the lumen. Infection with tuberculosis bacteria is a major cause of disease. In my country, especially in rural areas, fallopian tube obstruction caused by tuberculous salpingitis is very common. Secondly, some pathogenic bacteria such as Staphylococcus, Streptococcus or Gonorrhea spread to the fallopian tubes or pelvic cavity through the vagina, cervix and uterus, causing pelvic peritonitis and serious systemic infection. There are also reports of inflammation caused by Trichomonas in China. It is not uncommon for acute pelvic inflammatory disease and salpingitis to occur after artificial abortion. Endometriosis in the fallopian tubes can cause blockage of the fallopian tubes. In short, these are all pathological reasons. Tubal ligation, tubal occlusion and tubal silver clamps are all methods of artificially blocking the fallopian tubes in order to achieve the purpose of eliminating the family.

Can blocked fallopian tubes be reopened? Yes. In some cases of infertility caused by mild fallopian tube adhesions, pregnancy occurs after a fallopian tube insufflation or angiography, which means that fallopian tube examination can play a therapeutic role in some cases. However, in most cases, tubal remodeling surgery is required to restore the canalization. The success rate of recanalization depends on the nature and extent of the obstruction. For example, the success rate of tubal recanalization after tubal ligation is generally high, while recanalization after sterilization with adhesive plugging is much more difficult. Because most adhesives are chemical corrosives or high-molecular adhesives, they will cause epithelial necrosis after being injected into the isthmus of the fallopian tube. This then leads to the formation of a larger fibrotic scar.

The above is an introduction to the success rate of fallopian tube clearance surgery. I hope it will be helpful to women’s understanding. The success rate of fallopian tube clearance surgery is closely related to the strength of the hospital and is also related to the condition of the disease. Therefore, if you have this problem, it is best to go to a regular hospital for diagnosis and treatment, so as to increase the success rate of the operation.
