There are many causes of female fallopian tube malformation. The fallopian tubes are an important part of the female reproductive system and are the only passage for transporting eggs. The fallopian tubes are a pair of long and curved muscular ducts in females, responsible for delivering the eggs to the uterus.
Fallopian tube malformation refers to abnormalities in the fallopian tubes due to congenital developmental defects or acquired pathological changes. The absence of fallopian tubes or underdeveloped fallopian tubes can lead to infertility symptoms in women. Congenital fallopian tube infertility cannot be treated, while acquired fallopian tube malformations require timely treatment.
Treatment methods for fallopian tube malformation:
For the accessory fallopian tube: The presence of the accessory fallopian tube may affect the normal egg collection function of the fallopian tubes and is related to the occurrence of ectopic pregnancy in the fallopian tubes, thus preventive surgical removal of the accessory fallopian tube can be performed.
For fallopian tube diverticulum: Since the fertilized egg is likely to implant here, causing ectopic pregnancy, miscarriage, or rupture in the ampullary region, based on the patient’s fertility requirements, fallopian tube plastic surgery or removal can be performed.
For the solid fallopian tube: There are currently no good treatment methods for cord-like fallopian tubes or absent fallopian tubes. For fallopian tubes without a fimbrial end, salpingostomy can be performed, but successful treatment rates are low.
For absent mid-segment fallopian tubes: Microsurgical anastomosis can be performed, similar to fallopian tube recanalization after sterilization, which has a certain success rate.
Female friends should develop good living habits in daily life, avoid casual abortions, maintain a healthy lifestyle and diet, and avoid unclean practices.
Can fallopian tube malformation lead to pregnancy?
Fallopian tube malformation severely affects the combination of eggs and sperm, leading to infertility, so the treatment of fallopian tube malformation is extremely important.
Fallopian tube malformation can be classified as congenital and acquired. For mechanically induced fallopian tube malformations due to acquired factors, conservative drug treatment and surgical intervention can usually be applied. In contrast, congenital fallopian tube malformations caused by chromosomal and hormonal abnormalities require specific treatment plans based on the patient’s condition and cause.
If such patients wish to conceive and have low hopes of natural conception, they can consider assisted reproductive technologies like in vitro fertilization, as it does not require the fallopian tubes.
