Background: To evaluate the hysterosalpingography (HSG) findings of women with infertility in a tertiary center located in central Turkey.
Methods: A total of 1,996 patients undergoing the HSG procedure for the investigation of infertility from April 2012 to 2017 were retrospectively evaluated using the archives of the reproductive endocrinology and radiology departments. Demographic and clinical characteristics of patients with normal HSG findings (n = 1,549) and patients with abnormal HSG findings (n = 447) were compared, and the distribution of pathologies on the HSG examinations was evaluated as well.
