A '''hydrosalpinx''' is a blocked [[fallopian tube]] filled with fluid. The blocked tube may become substantially distended with fluid. Hydrosalpinx may be diagnosed using [[ultrasound]], or by [[laparoscopy]], or by using a hysterosalpingogram (HSG), a type of X-ray designed that uses a [[contrast agent]] to image the fallopian tubes.
