[Pericaval intravasation of contrast media in the changed indication for hysterosalpingography]

Today the indication of hysterosalpingography is supplied via radiography in the diagnosis of female infertility patients. Hence, a different group of patients is now selected in contrast to the previous indications. The venous intravasation in uterine and adnexal vessels among infertility patients was observed in only 0.4% of our cases. The relationship between the changed indication, the technique of HSG, the changed permeability of the vessels after surgery, and the rare occurrence of intravasation is discussed.
