Term pregnancy after fallopian tube transposition.
A 28-year-old woman suffered from pelvic pain and secondary infertility. She previously had right salpingo-oophorectomy because of ruptured right cornual EP. She was found to have a normal appearing left fallopian tube that entered into a noncommunicating residual horn of the uterus. Microsurgical transposition of the left tube and tubouterine implantation was performed successfully. For cases in which tubocornual anastomosis of the transposed tube is impossible because of previous cornual resection, our technique remains an option.
