Endoscopically-guided transcervical fallopian recannulation for the treatment of proximal tubal occlusion was performed in 27 patients. 31/38 (81,66,3%) tubes were cannulated successfully. Of 25/27(92,65,0%) patients at least one tube was successfully treated, the perforation rate was 3,7% (1 patient) and there were 12 pregnancies (48,0%). This procedure has the advantages of visualization of distal tubal segments and uterine cavity. The prognosis is poor when additional distal disease is present.
