Normal pregnancy after outpatient tubouterine implantation in patient with Adiana sterilization

Abstract

To demonstrate the feasibility of outpatient correction of Adiana proximal tubal occlusion by surgical implantation of the fallopian tubes. Case study. Outpatient surgical center. A 36-year-old woman with a history of bilateral proximal tubal occlusion secondary to Adiana sterilization who desired surgical correction and natural conception. Outpatient surgical correction of proximal Adiana tubal occlusion by use of a minilaparotomy to perform bilateral tubouterine implantation. Natural conception of pregnancy. The patient underwent a successful outpatient bilateral tubouterine implantation to correct Adiana sterilization. The procedure was performed through a minilaparotomy abdominal incision by use of a posterior transfundal uterine incision to implant the isthmic sections of each tube into the uterine cavity. The patient's postoperative course was uncomplicated. Natural conceptions occurred at 6 and 9 months after surgery. The first pregnancy was of unknown location and aborted spontaneously. The second pregnancy was uncomplicated and was delivered at 39 weeks' gestation by elective cesarean delivery. Adiana hysteroscopic tubal occlusion can be surgically corrected in an outpatient setting through tubouterine implantation and this surgical technique can provide patients with an alternative to in vitro fertilization.
