Definition
The Fallopian tubes (aka salpinges, oviducts) are a pair of tubular structures that are part of the female reproductive system and also part of the genitourinary system. They are characterized by their delicate and gracile nature and functional importance in fertilization.
Structurally they are usually about 10cms long (range 7-14cms), and are funnel shaped. The widest portion of the funnel is situated laterally, is called the infundibulum, and is open to the peritoneal cavity. The fimbriae are delicate finger like processes that surround the opening. Medial to the infundibulum is the middle and longest portion called the ampulla. It continues to taper as it progresses medially, and it takes up half the length of the tube with a maximum outer diameter of 1-2cms. More medial to the ampulla is the isthmus which is also slightly tapered, constitutes about 1/3 of the length, and has an outer diameter of .5-1cms. There is a 1cms long medial intramural portion of the tube called the interstitial portion or cornual portion that connects the tube to the uterus and it has an internal diameter of 1mms.
Histologically the tubes are structured like many other tubular organs of the body. There are three layers; an inner mucosa, intermediate muscular layer and an outer serosa which is continuous with the peritoneum.
Functionally the tubes act as the site which allows fertilization to take place, and also acts as the transport system that carries the fertilized egg (gamete) to the uterus.
Common diseases include pelvic inflammatory disease and ectopic pregnancy. Primary tumors of the tubes are rare.
Treatments are based on the cause of disease. Surgical procedures include tubal ligation, salpingolysis, resection and anastomosis and neosalpingectomy.

Normal Hysterosalpingogram
|
| This hysterosalpingogram is from a 26 year old female with normal endometrial cavity and cervical canal. Note the irregular shape to the cervical canal (dark pink) while the endometrial lining is smooth (marroon). Note also the free spillage of contrast from the tubes (orange) into the peritoneal cavity (white contrast in d,) via the fimbrae (yellow) indicating patent tubes.
