How to treat fallopian tube cysts

Fallopian tube cyst is a very common disease of the fallopian tube. This disease is also a more serious one in gynecology. Because it will affect the normal fertility of women, women must actively seek treatment. After the fallopian tube is blocked, they must find a way to open it, otherwise it is likely to cause fallopian tube cysts. Fallopian tube cysts generally require surgical treatment. The following is a detailed introduction.

How to treat blocked fallopian tubes?

The surgical treatment method varies depending on the location of the fallopian tube blockage. If the blockage is at the umbrella end, top or end, a "stoma" is usually created to reopen the blocked area.

If the blocked area is in the middle of the fallopian tube, the blocked section of the fallopian tube will generally be removed directly, and then the remaining two ends will be anastomosed. Patients often worry that the length of the fallopian tube will shrink and become "not enough" after fallopian tube removal and anastomosis.

In fact, a normal fallopian tube is 10 to 15 centimeters long. For the combination of sperm and egg, a 6 to 8 centimeter long intact fallopian tube is enough. Therefore, cutting off 1 centimeter has almost no effect on conception.

It should be noted that if the blocked part of the fallopian tube is close to the uterus, the doctor may not recommend surgery. Because the fallopian tube close to the uterus is very thin and the hole is only the size of a pinhole, it is difficult to perform surgery to clear it. Even if it is cleared, it is easy to form adhesions, and the surgical treatment effect is very poor.

Generally speaking, in this case, the doctor will recommend in vitro fertilization directly. In vitro fertilization does not require passing through the fallopian tubes, thus fundamentally avoiding the trouble of fallopian tube blockage.
