Objective: To investigate the diagnostic value of color Doppler ultrasonography applied to infertile patients with chronic salpingitis and mycoplasma infection. Methods: 116 infertile patients with chronic salpingitis and mycoplasma infection were selected in this investigation.
After these patients were admitted to hospital, they all underwent color Doppler ultrasound guided hysterosalpingogram and X-ray hysterosalpingography, in order to make definitive diagnoses, and the X-ray hysterosalpingography was considered as the gold standard. The diagnostic value and rates
of adverse reaction between color Doppler ultrasound guided hysterosalpingogram and X-ray hysterosalpingography were evaluated. Results: A total of 116 patients with chronic salpingitis and mycoplasma infection received color Doppler ultrasound guided hysterosalpingogram and X-ray hysterosalpingography.
Diagnostic coincidence rates were equal, and no statistical difference could be observed (P > 0.05), with respect to the tubal patency in double sides, tubal obstruction in double sides, tubal patency in single side, and tubal obstruction in single side. When concerning adverse reactions,
the incidence rates of allergy and colporrhagia between two groups were statistically significantly different (P = 0.025 and P = 0.040, respectively). In addition, the total incidence rate of adverse reactions was also statistically significant different (P = 0.003). Conclusion:
The color Doppler ultrasound aided hysterosalpingogram could make a diagnosis intuitively and clearly for patients with chronic salpingitis and mycoplasma infection, and can be used as the preferred method for diagnosing tubal infertility.
