Hydrosalpinx causing concern

Is nothing ever straightforward?

Was due for hysterectomy for Grade 1, suspected Stage 1a on 18th December

MRI has shown a significant amount of endometriosis so I've been referred to a specialist hospital to see whether they feel able to perform the hysterectomy.  They've also discovered a hydrosalpinx and from what I understand from the CNS, this could simply be fluid or could contain cancer cells - so once again, my head is spinning.

Just wondering :-

1. Anyone has been able to have a full hysterectomy with stage 3/4 endometriosis (I appreciate that I've asked this before on here, but some may not have seen it) - apparently my bowel and rectum are stuck to my uterus;

2. Has anyone also had a hydrosalpinx removed when having their hysterectomy and what was the outcome of this?  Did it cause your cancer to increase to a higher stage?

Thank you in advance
