ABSTRACT
The debate on the effect of the hydrosalpinx on medically-assisted reproduction has demonstrated the importance of understanding the complex pathophysiology of the hydrosalpinx in outlining the principles of its clinical management, whether it is by functional surgery or IVF, preceded or not by salpingectomy. New endoscopic techniques are available to accurately assess, both in the operating room and the office, the quality of the tubal mucosa. The direct endoscopic evaluation of the tubal mucosa in hydrosalpinges is at present the most reliable technique to select between functional surgery and preventive salpingectomy. In future, prospective randomized studies on salpingectomy will benefit greatly from accurate clinicopathological data.
