What name is given to surgery for blocked fallopian tubes?

Dr. Gerard Honore answered

Specializes in Fertility Medicine

Surgery : Tubal repair surgery is often called tiboplasty. Opening a tube blocked at the far end may be called salpingo- neostomy. Unblocking at the near end might be tubal cannulation. Cutting out a blocked segment and reconnecting is tubal anastomoses.
