Implementation of a successful outpatient laparoscopic sterilization program in Calcutta
Abstract:
This study presents data on 109 women undergoing laparoscopic sterilization by tubal rings at the Calcutta Medical Research Institute and Hospital. The average operating time was 15 minutes and the average stay in the recovery room was 4 hours. The overall complication rate was 18%, including surgical and early postoperative complications. All patients returned for follow-up. Long-term follow-up will be required to determine the rates of delayed complications and the efficacy of the procedure.
