RESUMEN

In this prospective comparative study, compared with fertile control subjects (n = 12), infertile patients with hydrosalpinx (n = 18) had lower E-cadherin and a trend toward decreased N-cadherin H-scores in the endometrium (3.6 ± 0.6 vs. 2.4 ± 0.8 and 0.57 ± 1.0 vs. 0.52 ± 0.5, respectively). In hydrosalpinx, epithelial N-cadherin expression was discontinuous and disappeared in atrophic patches.
