| salpingostomy |
Microsurgery to make a permanent, new opening at the outer fimbrial end of the fallopian tube after it has become blocked (see hydrosalpinx) from salpingitis or, uncommonly nowadays, from fimbriectomy. Sometimes attempted at laparoscopy, though mostly with a reduced chance of success. See also fimbriolysis. A description of the operation is given in WebPage 13.
