Abstract

PIP: Perioperative problems of laparoscopic sterilization of women are reported. Various techniques of sterilization are described and evaluated as to safety, reliability, and complication rates on the basis of 490 laparoscopic tubal sterilizations. The dangers of electrocoagulation with or without resection of a tubal fragment from the coagulated area are pointed out. The major complications are bleeding and burns. Therefore, it should be attempted to find a technique of laparoscopic sterilization that eliminates these risks. A promising technique may be Yoon's silicone band.
