Collection of fluid within the fallopian tube is called hydrosalpinx. The fluid that flows through the tubes gets trapped resulting the tube to swell and thus causing hydrosalpinx. The fertilization takes place in the tubes as the ovary releases an egg each month and the sperm meet the egg after which the fertilized egg move towards the uterus.
Any sort of damage or blockage in these tubes can prevent conception and pregnancy. If both the tubes are affected it is impossible to achieve pregnancy.
The causes of hydrosalpinx may be endometriosis, ruptured appendicitis, pelvic inflammatory disease, trauma, sexually transmitted diseases etc. Usually hydrosalpinx is a result of untreated infection in the fallopian tubes.
The inflammation leads to destruction of fimbria that is responsible for carrying the egg to the sperm and movement of egg and sperm towards each other for fertilization. If the fimbria is injured it fuses and thus closes the tubes. Due to this the fluids gets collected in the tubes making it dysfunctional.
