Summary

The US Collaborative Review of Sterilization investigated the efficacy of various tubal sterilization techniques in 1996. These procedures included clip sterilization, unipolar coagulation, bipolar coagulation, and postpartum partial salpingectomy. Cumulative 10-year probability of pregnancy was determined to be about 18.5 per 1,000 female sterilization procedures [2]. The failure rate range was 7.5–36.5 per 1,000. This included tubal sterilization methods such as postpartum partial salpingectomy, laparoscopic unipolar coagulation, Falope rings, interval partial salpingectomy, bipolar coagulation, and spring clips. Table 14.1 shows the failure rate for the different sterilization techniques after 1 year.
