âThe Machineâ International Trailer. The Machine is being hailed as one of 2014's best sci-fi thrillers. Coming to U.K. theaters this March, the story, from director Caradog W. James, takes place in an impoverished world plunged deep into a Cold War with a new enemy.
The blockage is caused by an adherent plug of mucus that forms over the opening of the fallopian tube(s). In some women, injecting the contrast for the HSG will dislodge the plug with immediate opacification of both of the tubes. Therefore, for some women they only need the HSG to open their tubes.
A fallopian tube blockage typically prevents successful passage of the egg to the sperm, or the fertilized egg to the uterus. Surgery can be used to try to correct this common cause of infertility. The specific type of surgery depends on the location and extent of the fallopian tube blockage. Some tubal procedures can be done using microsurgical techniques, either during open abdominal surgery or using laparoscopy through a small incision.
