    Bipolar electrode laparoscopic sterilization is a safe and effective method for female sterilization. This procedure in 62 patients showed a low failure rate and no complications, making it a viable option.

    Area of Science:

    • Reproductive Medicine
    • Minimally Invasive Surgery

    Background:

    • Female sterilization is a common procedure for permanent contraception.
    • Laparoscopic approaches offer minimally invasive options.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of laparoscopic sterilization using a bipolar electrode.

    Main Methods:

    • Laparoscopic sterilization with a bipolar electrode was performed in 62 patients.
    • Effectiveness was assessed using hysterosalpingography (HSG) in 51 patients.

    Main Results:

    • Sterilization failure occurred in 1 out of 62 patients (1.6%).
    • Effectiveness was questionable in an additional patient.
    • No complications related to the laparoscopy procedure were reported.
