OBJECTIVE: Our aim was to determine the diagnostic accuracy of office hysteroscopy with hysteroscopic chromotubation findings about tubal patency in comparison with the laparoscopic chromopertubation. STUDY DESIGN: Thirty-four healthy, fertile women who had tubal ligation for contraception and thirty women with unexplained infertility were included to the study. Both fallopian tubes of patients were evaluated for tubal patency with hysteroscopic chromotubation and laparoscopic chromopertubation. Finally, we calculated the accuracy of hysteroscopic chromotubation in diagnosing tubal patency. RESULTS: Hysteroscopic chromotubation was positive in 100 patients, while 91 of these patients had patent tubes and nine had non-patent tubes in laparoscopy. Twenty-eight woman had negative hysteroscopic chromotubation. Thirteen of 28 patients with negative hysteroscopic chromotubation were confirmed with laparoscopically, however remaining 15 patients had patent tubes in laparoscopy. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive and negative predictive values for hysteroscopic chromotubation were 85.85%, 59.09%, 91.00%, 46.43%, consequently. CONCLUSION: Hysteroscopic chromotubation could give the chance to practitioners to assess tubal patency during hysteroscopy with high sensitivity and positive predictive value. Conclusions of our study needs to be confirmed with large cohorts from further studies.
