Relationship between chronic endometritis and fallopian tube obstruction and its influence on pregnancy outcome after fallopian tubal recanalization.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Chronic endometritis (CE), frequently asymptomatic, is associated with female infertility. Fallopian tube obstruction (FTO) is also one of the factors contributing to female infertility. More than 90% of cases of proximal FTO can be successfully treated after fallopian tubal recanalization (FTR) and the spontaneous pregnancy rate of treated women after FTR is only about 30%. Potential factors affecting the success rate of FTR remain unclear. We speculate that CE may be one of the reasons affecting the recanalization of the fallopian tubes.

Objectives

To identify the correlation between CE and FTO, as well as the influence of CE on pregnancy outcomes following FTR.

Design

Retrospective observational study.

Methods

We retrospectively analyzed 498 women
