Hydrosalpinx in a 57-year-old woman who has been using intrauterine devices (IUDs) for about 20 years. (a) Sagittal and (b) coronal T2-weighted MR images show a distended left fallopian tube with high signal intensity content (white arrows). (c) Sagittal fat-suppressed T1-weighted image shows a distended fallopian tube with low signal intensity content (white arrow), a finding consistent with hydrosalpinx (d) Axial DW image (b = 800 s/mm2) shows that the lesion’s content does not demonstrate restricted diffusion with low signal intensity (white arrow). (e) Haematoxylin and eosin stained sample showed flattened tubal epithelium and fibrosis of the wall (H&E 100X)
