ROLE OF HYSTEROSALPINGOGRAPHY IN MANAGEMENT OF FEMALE INFERTILITY AND ITS LAPAROSCOPIC CORRELATION
Journal Title: IJAR-Indian Journal of Applied Research - Year 2019, Vol 9, Issue 11
Abstract
BACKGROUND : Infertility nowadays has become a medical as well as social problem.Laboratory findings alone is inconclusive in diagnosing infertility.HSG is the radiographic technique for evaluation of uterine cavity & fallopian tubes..Direct visualization of abdominal and pelvic organs in laparoscopy allows a definite diagnosis where clinical examination & less invasive techniques such as ultrasound & HSG fail to identify the abnormality. AIMS & OBJECTIVES : To determine the role of HSG in the evaluation of infertility & to correlate its findings with laparoscopy. METHODS : 75 infertile females aged between 20-40 years were included. HSG & laparoscopy was performed in all patients & findings were analysed. RESULTS : Sensitivity of HSG was 80 %,specificity was 76 % with positive predictive value 63%, negative predictive value 88 % in detecting tubal pathology. Sensitivity of HSG in detecting uterine pathology was 67%, specificity 73%, positive predictive value 39% and negative predictive value 89%. CONCLUSION : HSG has reasonably good sensitivity & specificity in diagnosing tubal & uerine pathology while laparoscopy has diagnostic as well as therapeutic approach.Hence they are complimentary to each other in infertility work up.
