Figure 15b. Hydrosalpinx. (a) Steep right oblique spot radiograph shows dilatation of the ampullary portion of the right fallopian tube (arrow). The left fallopian tube is normal in caliber. Mucosal folds are visible in the ampullary portions of both fallopian tubes, a finding that helps confirm the presence of contrast material within the tubes. (b) Spot radiograph shows dilatation of the ampullary portion of the left fallopian tube, a finding that is consistent with a hydrosalpinx. No contrast material spillage is seen on the left side. The right fallopian tube is abruptly cut off, a finding that is consistent with previous tubal ligation.
