MR of Fallopian Tubes

MR imaging has an important role in imaging evaluation of fallopian tube (FT) pathology, ranging from benign to malignant conditions. Congenital Mullerian anomalies of FTs such as accessory tubal ostia and unicornuate uterus and associated pathology are well assessed by MR imaging. Benign diseases include hydrosalpinx , pelvic inflammatory disease , and its manifestations including salpingitis , pyosalpinx, tubo-ovarian abscess, and tubal endometriosis manifesting as hematosalpinx. Acute benign conditions include isolated FT torsion and ectopic pregnancy . Neoplastic conditions include benign paratubal cysts to malignant primary FT carcinomas .
