Question

which medical term means pus in the fallopian tube?
pyosalpinx
hematosalpinx
dysosalpinx
fallopyogenic

Explanation:

• Pyosalpinx: The prefix "pyo - " means pus. So, pyosalpinx refers to pus in the fallopian tube (salpinx is the medical term for fallopian tube).
• Hematosalpinx: The prefix "hemato - " means blood. So, hematosalpinx refers to blood in the fallopian tube.
• Dysosalpinx: The prefix "dys - " means abnormal or difficult. Dysosalpinx is an abnormal condition of the fallopian tube, not specifically pus.
• Fallopyogenic: This is not a standard medical term. The root "fallop - " is related to the fallopian tube, but " - pyogenic" means producing pus. However, this is not a recognized term in medical terminology like pyosalpinx.

Answer:

pyosalpinx
