Abstract

HSG examination was performed on 363 female patients diagnosed because of infertility. In 258 (71.8%) women primary infertility was recognized and in 105 (28.9%) secondary infertility. Normal anatomical state of Fallopian tube was observed in 65 (77.4%) patients with primary infertility and only in 19 (22.6%) with secondary infertility. Abnormal results of examination were discovered in altogether 279 (76.9%) diagnosed patients. Taking into consideration Fallopian tube factor in secondary infertility, it was discovered in as many as 81.9% of cases.
