In the present study, the morphological variations in the isthmus segment of goat (Capra hircus) oviduct were studied using scanning and ultrastructural techniques during luteal and follicular phases of oestrous cycle. Topographic analysis of the isthmus epithelium in the follicular phase demonstrated irregular distribution of ciliated cells on the epithelium. A few secretory cells possessed bulbous apical processes which were concealed by the cilia. Cyclic changes were noticed in the secretory cells of isthmus. Under electron microscopy the isthmus region of the oviduct during the follicular phase revealed presence of almost blunt processes at their apical surfaces. The secretory cells were attached to the basal lamina and were characterized by the presence of secretory granules, numerous ribosomes, extensive smooth endoplasmic reticulum, well-developed golgi zones in the cytoplasm, and a microvillus luminal surface. The parallel use of these two methods in isthmus segment of the oviduct has enabled us to analyze the marked cyclic variations in the topography and fine structure during follicular and luteal phases of the oestrous cycle. The results of the present investigation on topography and ultrastructure will be of great help in explaining different bottlenecks of gamete interaction, maturation, fertilization, and early embryo development.

“…The pathogenesis of tubo-ovarian xanthogranulomatous inflammation has not been definitely established. A foreign body reaction in the tube, with infiltration of the tissue by giant cells and histiocytes, may occur after hysterosalpingography (Wheeler 1982). Lubricant jelly, mineral oil, starch and talc powder may cause lipid or granulomatous salpingitis (Campbell et al 1964, Elliot, Brady & Elliot 1965.…”

We describe three cases of xanthogranulomatous inflammation in the female genital tract—one affecting endometrium, tube and ovary, one affecting tube, ovary and parametrium and one confined to the endometrium. To date, xanthogranulomatous inflammation in the female genital tract has been reported in a total of 19 cases including the present three. The inflammation most often affects the endometrium but involvement of the vagina, cervix, fallopian tube and ovary may also occur.

“…It has been associated with ectopic tubal pregnancies with a wide range of incidence (2.8%-57%) [8,10], and in 46% if the isthmic site-specific ectopic pregnancy is considered separately [11]. In those infertile patients undergoing tubal recanalization for proximal tubal obstruction, the incidence of ectopic pregnancy is reported to be between 7% and 25% [12][13][14][15].…”
