| description | Introduction:
In Malaysia, infertility affects one out of seven couples. And over the decades,
infertility rates in the country have been increasing between 1 0 and 15 per cent.
Despite this figure, awareness of this and the treatments available are still lacking.
Many are not aware that infertility is a disease of the reproductive system which in
the majority of cases can be treated. Tubal factor accounts for 15 - 30% of
infertility in all women in developing countries with high rates of pelvic
inflammatory disease. Hysterosalpingogram is an important diagnostic test in the
evaluation of intrauterine abnormalities and tubal patency in the infertility workup
of female patients. Many studies had been done to assess the accuracy of
hysterosalpingogram as compared to laparoscopy as the gold standard. The recent
study showed good concordance rate of the findings investigated by both
modalities.
Objectives:
To identify the characteristics, accuracy and outcome of hysterosalpingography in
HUSM. |
