    Uterine cornual cauterization after early induced abortion effectively occluded Fallopian tubes for sterilization. Postoperative hysterosalpingography confirmed successful tubal occlusion in all 33 patients studied.

    Area of Science:

    • Gynecology
    • Reproductive Medicine
    • Surgical Sterilization

    Background:

    • Female sterilization is a common contraceptive method.
    • Minimally invasive techniques are sought for post-abortion procedures.
    • Uterine cornual cauterization offers a potential sterilization option.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the efficacy of uterine cornual cauterization for sterilization.
    • To assess the feasibility of performing the procedure immediately postpartum after induced abortion.
    • To confirm tubal occlusion rates using hysterosalpingography.

    Main Methods:

    • 33 patients underwent uterine cornual cauterization for sterilization.
    • The procedure was performed immediately after induced abortion (6-8 weeks' gestation).

  • Ultrasound guidance was used for uterine localization; hysterosalpingography confirmed results 16 weeks postoperatively.
  • Main Results:

    • All 33 patients achieved successful Fallopian tube occlusion.
    • Hysterosalpingography confirmed 100% tubal occlusion rate.
    • The procedure was performed successfully in conjunction with early gestation abortion.

    Conclusions:

    • Uterine cornual cauterization is an effective sterilization method when performed after early induced abortion.
    • Ultrasound-guided cornual cauterization offers a reliable approach to female sterilization.
    • This technique demonstrates a high success rate for permanent contraception.
