What Does Fallopian Tube Unopacified Mean?
There is immediate and satisfactory opacification of the uterine cavity showing smooth marginal outline and normal mucosal pattern. There are no definite evidence for filling defectsnor abnormal areas of extrinsic deformities. The left fallopian tube is unopacified. There is well visualization of the right fallopian tube showing normal caliber and course with spillage of contrast into the peritoneal cavity. What does this mean?

Hi,
From the description, it appears that the dye has not entered the left fallopian tube. This is why opacification is not seen. This means there is a block inhibiting entry of the dye. Hence, spillage also is not seen from this side. Further evaluation through laparoscopy is needed.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Shanti Vennam, OBGYN
