  • Title: [Hysterosalpingography in sterility].
    Author: Orlic H, Srketić M, Borovecki I.
    Journal: Jugosl Ginekol Opstet; 1979; 18(1):53-7. PubMed ID: 459545.
    Abstract:
    From 1967 to 1975 the authors performed 500 hysterosalpingographies in 851 women examined for sterility. Hysterosalpingography was carried out under the diascopic control of an electronic amplifier and a tele-monitor. As a contrast medium only the water-soluble Joduron U-S (Cilag) was used. In 286 women (57%) primary sterility and 214 (43%) secondary sterility were established. Radiographic analysis revealed 209 anomalies of the uterus, 114 of which related to hypoplastic uterus. In 286 women with primary sterility there was occlusion of one or both tubes in 62 cases (21.67%) and the sactosalpinx of one or both tubes in 48 cases (16.78%). In 214 women with secondary sterility, there was occlusion of one or both tubes in 66 cases (31.30%) and the sactosalpinx of one or both tubes in 48 cases (22.42%). In 500 hysterosalpingographies the intravasation of the contrast medium into the venous system occurred in 23 cases (4.60%) but there was not a single case of unatoward side-effects. Sixty-six women became gravid 1--6 months after hysterosalpingography, without the use any other kind of therapy.
