Disease relevance of Salpingostomy

• RESULTS: At laparoscopy, in three patients (12%) who were scheduled for salpingostomy, the diagnosis of distal tube occlusion made at HSG was incorrectly positive; in the three patients, a single tubal diverticulum was present in the distal ampulla in otherwise normal, patent tubes [1].
• A patient with residual ectopic pregnancy after salpingostomy was treated with the anti-P RU 486 [2].
• Impact of the learning curve on term delivery rates following laparoscopic salpingostomy for infertility associated with distal tubal occlusive disease [3].
• Local infiltration of ornithine 8-vasopressin (POR 8) as a vasoconstrictive agent in surgical pelviscopy (applied to myoma enucleation, salpingotomy in cases of tubal pregnancy and peripheral salpingostomy) [4].
• The first woman was admitted with an acute abdomen; salpingectomy was performed to control hemorrhage from tubal rupture at the site of the previous salpingostomy [5].

High impact information on Salpingostomy

• Fertility outcome after systemic methotrexate and laparoscopic salpingostomy for tubal pregnancy [6].
• Randomised trial of systemic methotrexate versus laparoscopic salpingostomy in tubal pregnancy [7].
• METHODS: Between January, 1994, and September, 1996, haemodynamically stable patients with laparoscopically confirmed unruptured tubal pregnancy and no signs of active bleeding were randomly assigned systemic methotrexate (four 1.0 mg/kg doses of intramuscular methotrexate alternated with 0.1 mg/kg oral folinic acid) or laparoscopic salpingostomy [7].
• The mean (+/-standard deviation) time required for serum progesterone concentrations to decrease to less than 1.5 ng/mL was significantly less for laparoscopic salpingostomy than for treatment with methotrexate: 7.8+/-1.7 and 17.6+/-2.2 days, respectively (P < .01) [8].
• Resolution of hormonal markers of ectopic gestation: a randomized trial comparing single-dose intramuscular methotrexate with salpingostomy [8].

Chemical compound and disease context of Salpingostomy

• OBJECTIVE: To test the effectiveness of laparoscopic intratubal methotrexate (MTX) injection or salpingostomy in the treatment of ectopic pregnancy (EP) [9].
• OBJECTIVE: To evaluate resolution of serum hCG and progesterone in patients with ectopic pregnancy receiving single-dose intramuscular (IM) methotrexate as compared with those undergoing laparoscopic salpingostomy [8].

Biological context of Salpingostomy

• SETTING: Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Haemek Medical Center, Afula, Israel. PATIENT(S): One hundred one women who were treated for tubal pregnancy: 58 by salpingostomy and 43 by local MTX injection [10].

Anatomical context of Salpingostomy

• Fifteen cases of tubal pregnancy with only one functional fallopian tube were treated by linear salpingostomy at Yale-New Haven Hospital between 1975 and 1980 [11].
• Only those patients requiring incision of the tubal serosa (salpingostomy) were included, representing the most severe lesions [12].

Associations of Salpingostomy with chemical compounds

• The tube was preserved in 46 (90%) patients in the methotrexate group versus 45 (92%) in the salpingostomy group (rate ratio 0.98 [95% CI 0.87-1.1]) [7].
• INTERVENTIONS: After randomization, 20 of these patients were treated with a local injection of hyperosmolar (50%) glucose solution and 20 women by salpingostomy [13].
• Laser CO2 microsurgical salpingostomies were performed on 76 patients between January 1979 and January 1984 [14].
• OBJECTIVE: To evaluate whether preoperative measurements of progesterone and hCG in serum can predict the risk of needing a second therapeutic intervention after laparoscopic salpingostomy [15].
• It appears that linear salpingostomy could be done for ampullary pregnancy without jeopardizing luminal integrity [16].

Gene context of Salpingostomy

• CONCLUSION: Laparoscopic salpingectomy should be considered for all women with hydrosalpinges due to undergo IVF; further research is required to assess other pre-IVF surgical interventions (such as needle aspiration of hydrosalpinx fluid, laparoscopic proximal tubal occlusion and laparoscopic salpingostomy) for women with hydrosalpinges [17].
• Systemic methotrexate therapy versus laparoscopic salpingostomy in tubal pregnancy. Part II. Patient preferences for systemic methotrexate [18].

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of Salpingostomy

• Surgical procedures performed included cesarean section, myomectomy, uterine septal repair, tubal reimplantation and reanastomosis, and fimbrioplasty/cuff salpingostomy [19].
• This is the first report of a pelvic trophoblastic implant following a linear salpingostomy for tubal pregnancy performed at laparotomy [20].
• Tubal endoscopy is the most advanced tool for that purpose, while transvaginal ultrasound is not appropriate in selecting patients to undergo either salpingectomy or salpingostomy [21].
• Accordingly, hydrosalpinx in the early stage can be cured fully by tubal salpingostomy using microsurgery [22].
• The procedures used, depending on the lesions present, were: myomectomy; tubal implantation, anastomosis, and salpingostomy; division of adhesions; ovarian wedge resection; and "paradoxical" oophorectomy [23].
