Abstract:Objective To explore the clinical efficacy of fallopian tube recanalization (FTR) plus traditional Chinese medicine and physiotherapy on obstructive infertility.Methods The subjects of this study, 126 patients with obstructive infertility admitted in our hospital from January 2016 to February 2018, were divided into observation group (n = 63) and control group (n = 63) on the basis of random number table. Besides FTR applied to all patients, the control group was administrated with conventional treatment after the operation, while the observation group was treated with Zini Kangyan Tongguan Decoction (Chinese medicine retention enema) combined with physiotherapy on the base of the control group. The clinical efficacy, postoperative pregnancy, tubal patency, serum levels of inflammatory factors, adverse reactions, and complications were compared between the two groups.Results The total effective rate was 95.2% (60/63) in the observation group and 79.4% (50/63) in the control group. The total effective rate in the observation group was higher than that in the control group (P < 0.05). The pregnancy rate of the observation group was 71.4% (45/63) in one year after operation, and that of the control group was 52.4% (33/63), and the pregnancy rate of the observation group was higher than that of the control group (P < 0.05). One year after operation, the non-pregnant tubal patency in the observation group was significantly better than that of the control group (P < 0.05). Three months after operation, the improvement of the serum levels of TNF-α, IL-1, IL-6 in the observation group were significantly better than that in the control group (P < 0.05). No severe side effect appeared in two group, such as endometrial or fallopian tube damage, vaginal bleeding or infection.Conclusion FTR combined with traditional Chinese medicine and physiotherapy in the treatment of obstructive infertility is helpful to maintain the patency of fallopian tube, improve the pregnancy rate, and alleviated the inflammatory reaction of serum TNF-α, IL-1, IL-6 and other inflammatory factors, with exactly overall effect.
