What Does this hysterosalpingography Test Result Mean?
HSG /Hystrosalpingography result reads as follows. Left fallopian tube is patent with normal peritoneal spillage during injection. Late control film showed normal peritoneal smear from the left tube, with possible left ovarian cyst causing a negative filling defect at left adnexa. Right tube is very faintly opacified with minimal filling of its lateral third even after several trials of forcible injections. Impression: Right tubal incomplete block. Can I still get pregnant? Could the cyst in the left ovary be a functional cyst?

Hello
I don't think you should have any problem in pregnancy.
Findings suggests patent left fallopian tube and it is normal to have pregnancy.Though right fallopian tube is partially blocked,it is not expected to cause problem in pregnancy.
You may need ultrasound of pelvis to assess filling defect in left adnexa.Filling defect may be due to many reasons including cysts.
It is important to assess size and nature of cysts.
Treatment depend upon findings.
Get well soon.
Take Care

Hello. Normally, the contrast injected through the cervix(lower part of uterus) fills the uterine cavity and enters the tubes, which ultimately spills out into the peritoneal (pelvic) cavity.
In your case the left tube appears to be patent with spillage, and the contrast has outlined a possible ovarian cyst, which also lies in the pelvis- resulting in a filling defect. Whether the cyst is a functional cyst or not can be ascertained with a pelvic ultrasound. Functional cysts are not worrisome (usually rupture), and only need serial USG if big sized.
The right tube hasn't filled completely nor shown contrast spill.
Pregnancy can result with one patent tube, but assuming that the ovaries are functioning optimally and no other co-factors are present.
Kindly get in touch with your gynaecologist, who will assist you for the same, and recommend any fertility treatments if required,especially if you are trying since a long time to conceive.
Hope this helps.. All the best.
