NONPUERPERAL FEMALE STERILIZATION Simplified, Inexpensive Technic For Partial Salpingectomy

WALTER G. SAUNDERS, MD and ROBERT A. MUNSICK, MD, FACOG

From the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at the University of New Mexico School of Medicine and the Bernalillo County Medical Center, Albuquerque, NM 87106.

Nonpuerperal sterilizations have not been popular for a variety of surgical, economic and social reasons. Recent liberalized attitudes toward sterilization have caused an increased demand for such services. Vaginal laparoscopic approaches obviate the prolonged hospitalization associated with conventional celiotomy, but require special skills. The SEMM cannula and a small (2 to 3 cm) laparotomy incision provide a rapid, inexpensive, and acceptable alternative method for permanent contraception.
