“…Normal pelvic organs were found in 161(73%) of the cases. Patient characteristics were similar to study observed by Ludwin et al 15 Similar or very close diseases incidences rate were also found with the same study done among 132 cases. SHSG was able to detect endometrial polyp in 2 cases.…”

Background: Hysterosalpingography (HSG) is an integral part of the Conventional clinical evaluation of infertile women. Now a day, Sonohysterography is a modern technique widely used in the clinical evaluation. The objective of this study was to identify pelvic pathology; compare the effect and findings of tubal patency test between Sonohysterosalpingography and single film HSG radiograph.Methods: This is a prospective evaluation of infertile women who attended the infertility unit of the gynecology department from 2017 March to 2018 October. Women 220 clients were subjected to clinical including SHSG evaluation followed by a single film HSG radiograph on the single sitting. The Chi-square test, multinomial logistic regression analysis was done using IBM SPSS statistics version 20.Results: Women had bilateral tubal patency 181(82.2%) in SHSG and conformed the same number later by HSG. SHSG showed bilateral tubal occlusion in 33 (15%) whereas HSG conformed only in 22(10%) and block was seen in 18(8.18%) only by HSG. The pathological findings were polycystic ovaries in 33 (15%), Fibroid uterus 11 (5%), ovarian cysts 5(2%), endometrial polyps in 2 cases, endometriotic cyst with hydrosalpinx 8(4%). Procedural side effects were no pain in 69(31.1%), mild pain 125(56.3%), Moderate pain 21(9.5%), vasovagal symptoms 7(3.1%). Conclusions:The outcome of the Sonohysterosalpingraphy (SHSG) test for tubal patency is significantly synergized by concurrent HSG in the same sitting. The combined test is best indicated if SHSG alone is not able to demonstrate the sign of tubal patency.

“…In CATnegative women, HSG was performed, and when tubal occlusion or abdominal pockets were seen on HSG, patients were referred for laparoscopy to confirm the presence of TFI. In women with patent tubes on HSG, no additional testing was done because of the high negative predictive value of HSG (Ludwin et al 2017). CAT-negative women who were considered at high risk for TFI due to endometriosis (based on history, physical examination and/or findings at ultrasound) were referred for laparoscopy immediately.…”

Both tests were comparable in the prediction of TFI. However, Mikrogen ELISA had a higher NPV and might be more reliable in identifying patients without TFI. Kappa-value showed limited concordance between both tests.

“…In fact, we believe that the bubbles were leaving the uterine cavity through the myometrial vessels and venous plexus, and reached the tubal and/or ovarian veins (Figure S3). Evaluation of tubal patency using foam (ExEM® Foam‐kit, hydroxyethylcellulose, glycerol and purified water; GynaecologIQ, Delft, The Netherlands) as contrast medium and power Doppler identified flow only in the right tube (Figure c) without signs of venous intravasation. There was no complication or pain following the examination and after a 2‐h observation period the patient left the clinic.…”
