Abstract :

Objective : To evaluates sonohysterosalpingography as an alternative to hysterosalpingography in patients of infertility. Method: This study was carried out in infertile women which included cases of both primary and secondary infertility attending the out patient department of obstetrics and gynaecology of Gayatri Hospital. This study includes 92 cases of infertility, in which 59 cases of primary infertility while 33 cases were of secondary infertility. All patients were examined by both techniques. Result : In detecting tubal patency, when results of HSG and SHSG were compared, agreement was found in 63 cases (94.03%) while disagreement in 4 cases (5.97%). In detecting tubal block the agreement was found in 25 cases (86.21%) while disagreement in 4 cases (13.79%). In detecting uterine abnormalities agreement between HSG and SHSG was found in 7 cases (i.e concordance rate of 53.85%) while no agreement was found in 6 cases (discordance rate 46.15%). In detecting the hydrosalpinx agreement rate between two procedures was 94.44% and disagreement 5.56%. Conclusion : The conclusion of this study is that SHSG and HSG both are complementary to each other. SHSG cannot totally replace the HSG.
