Hypersalpingography (HSG) is a common outpatient clinical examination of the fallopian tubes and is an important part of the fertility workup in infertile women. Although introduced for diagnostic purposes, therapeutic benefits of tubal flushing and positive cost-benefit analyses have been presented in literature for several years.
