Title: [Laparoscopic sterilization for medical indication (author's transl)]. Author: Portuondo JA, Echanojauregui AD, Castro A, Uribarren A. Journal: Rev Esp Obstet Ginecol; 1978 Dec; 37(241):577-82. PubMed ID: 154728. Abstract: 35 patients between 20-40 were sterilized for strictly medical reasons, mostly cardiopathies and nephropathies. Patients with cardiac problems had parity over 2-3; patients with nephritic problems had parity over 1; nulliparous patients were sterilized to prevent hereditary diseases. The technique used was bilateral tubaric coagulation, followed by double tubal section. No complications were reported, except 1 tubal pregnancy 2 months after sterilization.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
