Pros and cons of fallopian tube embolization

Fallopian tube embolization is a common surgical method in modern medicine. This surgery can effectively treat some fallopian tube diseases in women. The harm to the body caused by fallopian tube embolization is relatively small, and it will not damage the function of the fallopian tubes and ovaries. It can also prevent women from having ectopic pregnancies, and it has no side effects on the body.

What are the pros and cons of fallopian tube embolization?

Fallopian tube obstruction is divided into three types according to the location of the obstruction: interstitial obstruction, isthmus obstruction, ampulla obstruction, fimbria obstruction, and wrapping obstruction caused by adhesions around the fimbria end; and according to the degree of obstruction: complete obstruction and incomplete obstruction. Suggestions: Clinically, the treatment options vary depending on the location and degree of fallopian tube obstruction. Commonly used treatments include medication, physical therapy, surgery and other treatment methods.

Tubal ligation and tubal removal surgery.

Both tubal ligation and tubal ligation require cutting the fallopian tubes, which may damage ovarian function. It requires hospitalization for about a week, but the advantage is that the accumulated water can be completely removed from the body. The disadvantage is that it may increase pelvic adhesions, cause decreased ovarian function, hospitalization, higher costs, etc.

How is fallopian tube embolization performed?

Tubal embolization is an outpatient procedure. A catheter is inserted into the fallopian tube to tightly block the proximal section of the fallopian tube, completely blocking the proximal section of the fallopian tube to prevent the accumulated water from flowing back into the uterine cavity. The advantages are that it does not require damage to the fallopian tubes and ovarian blood supply, does not affect ovarian function, can avoid ectopic pregnancy after complete embolization, has low cost, does not require hospitalization, and has a quick recovery after surgery. Transplantation can be done after menstruation has stopped.

How to make an appointment for fallopian tube embolization surgery?

Surgery requirements: 1. Three days after the menstruation is completely clean and before ovulation. The surgery is usually scheduled within three to seven days after the menstruation is completely clean;

2. Do not have sex after your menstrual period is completely over;

3. Check the routine of leucorrhea. Those who meet the requirements can make an appointment in our hospital's radiology department or in person. Before the embolization, angiography will be performed to determine the extent of water accumulation. The embolization coil is an imported platinum vascular embolization coil, which has no effect on the body. The amount of embolization material used needs to be determined according to the thickness of the isthmus of the fallopian tube.
