The role of hysterosalpingography in modern gynaecological practice.
A retrospective review of hysterosalpingography (HSG) in a major gynaecological centre was carried out. 324 patients attended (95%) for HSG out of 341 patients referred for this investigation. 189 examinations (58.3%) were abnormal. The requests and radiological findings were reviewed and the results compared with laparoscopy. HSG remains an integral part of gynaecological investigation and its value has not diminished in modern practice.
