Abstract

Fallopian tube abnormalities including tubal occlusion, acute and chronic salpingitis, hydrosalpinx, peritubal adhesions, and salpingitis isthmica nodosa are major causes of female infertility, accounting for 30% to 40% of all cases. A tube may be obstructed as a result of inflammation or a previous surgery. Most commonly, fallopian tube occlusion is due to an infection such as pelvic inflammatory disease, typically caused by a sexually transmitted agent such as Chlamydia trachomatis or Neisseria gonorrhoeae.
