The aim of this study was to assess the diagnostic value and the usefulness of sono hysterosalpingography (SHG) in the detection of uterine abnormalities and tubal patency, compared with other diagnostic methods among patient with infertility. In a prospective study, 86 patients in the initial stage of the infertility treatment were examined by SHG using saline NaCl infundibular and Echovist as contrast media. Further status of the tubes and uterine cavity was assessed by the "gold standards", laparoscopy and hysteroscopy. Sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and the negative predictive value of SHG using NaCl infundibular for evaluation of the uterine cavity were 98.8%, 92.5%, 91.4% and 92%, respectively. Sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and the negative predictive value of SHG for the assessment of the tubal status were 97.6%, 89.2%, 76.3% and 77.4%, respectively. There were no evident complications during or after the procedure. Sono hysterosalpingography is useful in making decisions regarding further procedures for the diagnosis and treatment of infertility. This method is simple, safe and cheap for early assessment of the reproductive status of uterine cavity and fallopian tubes and perspective as a routine, first-line infertility investigation.
