EXPLORING THE FUNCTIONAL MORPHOLOGY OF HUMAN UTERINE TUBES IN THE 21ST CENTURY: UNCOVERING ANATOMICAL INNOVATIONS AND THEIR POTENTIAL CLINICAL USES

Pathologies of the uterine tube (UT) contribute to 25-35% of female factor infertility. Despite being studied centuries ago, these organs have been largely overlooked and neglected, primarily due to the advancements in reproductive medicine. However, challenges persist in achieving optimal fertility outcomes with in vitro fertilization (IVF). A more nuanced understanding of UT morphology and function during normal reproduction can potentially address many obstacles in reproductive medicine.
