Fallopian tube catheterization: modified fluoroscopic technique.
The authors describe a modification of previously described techniques for fallopian tube catheterization. Tubal catheterization was performed with standard techniques in nine patients. In nine patients tubal catheterization was achieved with a metal self-retaining uterine cannula and catheter set. The authors believe that the modified equipment offers several advantages over other available systems.
