Ultrasound guided aspiration of hydrosalpinx fluid versus salpingectomy in the management of patients with ultrasound visible hydrosalpinx undergoing IVF-ET: a randomized controlled trial.

ABSTRACT: The aim of this study was to compare the efficacy of ultrasound guided aspiration of hydrosalpinx fluid at the time of oocyte retrieval with salpingectomy in the management of patients with ultrasound visible hydrosalpinx undergoing IVF-ET.One hundred and sixty patients with ultrasound visible hydrosalpinx were randomized into salpingectomy group and aspiration group using computer generated randomization list and sequentially numbered sealed envelopes containing allocation information written on a card.The clinical pregnancy rate per started cycle and the implantation rate were non- significantly higher in the salpingectomy group compared with the aspiration group [40% vs. 27.5% (p value?=?0.132) and 18.95% vs. 12.82% (p value =0.124), respectively]. In the aspiration group, 34.21% of patients had rapid re-accumulation of the hydrosalpinx fluid (i.e. within first two weeks after embryo transfer). Whereas, the clinical pregnancy rate per transfer cycle and the implantation rate were significantly higher in salpingectomy group compared with the subgroup of patients with rapid re-accumulation of hydrosalpinx fluid [42.67% vs. 19.23% (p value?=?0.036) and 18.95% vs. 7.58% (p value?=?0.032), respectively], no significant differences were detected between the salpingectomy group and the subgroup of patients with no re-accumulation of hydrosalpinx fluid (42.67% vs. 34% (p value?=?0.356) and 18.95% vs. 15.5% (p value?=?0.457), respectively).The small sample size could be the cause of failure of detecting significant increase in implantation and pregnancy rates in salpingectomy group compared with aspiration group. Further larger randomized controlled trials are needed to determine whether salpingectomy is more effective than aspiration of hydrosalpinx fluid or not. Moreover, the data presented in this study suggested that rapid re-accumulation of hydrosalpinx fluid is an obstacle against successful implantation and the cause of lower success rate with ultrasound guided aspiration of hydrosalpinx fluid compared with salpingectomy.Clinical trials.gov ( NCT02008240 ), registered 8 December 2013.

Project description:Aim:The aim of this study was to compare the diagnostic adequacy of computed tomography (CT)-ultrasound (US) fusion image-guided fine needle aspiration (FNA) and US-guided FNA in patients with suspected hepatic metastases. Methods:Thirty consecutive patients of either sex with known or unknown primary malignancy suspected of having liver metastases on both US and CT, whose multiphasic contrast-enhanced computed tomography was performed using a 64-slice or a higher slice CT scanner, and who were referred for percutaneous FNA were included in this prospective study approved by the institutional review board of the study institute. CT-ultrasound fusion image-guided FNA of the largest lesion using electromagnetic tracking and with freehand ultrasound-guided FNA were performed in the same sitting. Value of fitness, which is a rough estimate of how well the fusion has been achieved, was recorded. Diagnostic adequacy of smears was assessed by a scoring system based on cellular material, background blood/clot, degree of cellular degeneration or trauma, and retention of architecture. Results:The size of the lesions ranged from 1 to 10 cm, and the depth of location of the lesions ranged from 1.4 to 9.3 cm. The fusion fitness values ranged from 1.2 to 10 mm. The scores of the smears did not correlate with lesion size, depth of location, and fusion fitness value. Diagnostic adequacy was seen in 90% and 93.3% of lesions sampled by fusion image guidance and ultrasound guidance, respectively (p = 0.655). All the lesions that yielded inadequate smears by fusion guidance were deep-seated lesions (>5 cm). All the lesions that yielded inadequate smears by ultrasound guidance were small lesions (<3 cm). No complications were encountered in any of the patients. Conclusion:Fusion image-guided FNA is a safe procedure with a high diagnostic adequacy rate. Fusion image-guided FNA is not better than US-guided FNA for conspicuous hepatic lesions; however, it may be useful in inconspicuous lesions.
