Abstract

To explore the effect of interventional embolization treatment for hydrosalpinx on the outcome of in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer (IVF-ET).During the period from January 2013 to January 2015, a total of 129 patients with unilateral or bilateral hydrosalpinx were treated with IVF-ET and selected for retrospective analysis. Seventy-three patients (intervention group) with unilateral or bilateral hydrosalpinx were treated with fallopian tube embolization, which was followed by IVF-ET. During the same period, 56 patients (control group) with unilateral or bilateral hydrosalpinx directly received IVF-ET without receiving any treatment for hydrosalpinx.The clinical pregnancy rate of the control group was significantly lower than that of the intervention group (P < .05), while the abortion rate and ectopic pregnancy rate of the control group were strikingly higher than that of the intervention group (P < .05).Hydrosalpinx can decrease the clinical pregnancy rate of IVF-ET, and increase the incidence of abortion and ectopic pregnancy. The interventional embolization treatment for hydrosalpinx before IVF-ET can improve the clinical pregnancy rate and reduce adverse pregnancy outcome and which, with the advantages of a high success rate, convenient use, low cost, less pain, no anesthetic risk and no effect on the ovarian function it may further be developed for use in the clinic.
