Laparoscopic Bilateral Tubal Ligation Report

Preoperative Diagnosis: Multiparous female desiring permanent sterilization.

Title of Operation: Laparoscopic bilateral tubal ligation with Falope rings

Laparoscopic Bilateral Tubal Ligation

Anesthesia: General endotracheal

Findings At Surgery: Normal uterus, tubes, and ovaries.

Description of Operative Procedure

After informed consent, the patient was taken to the operating room where general anesthesia was administered. The patient was examined under anesthesia and found to have a normal uterus with normal adnexa. She was placed in the dorsal lithotomy position and prepped and draped in sterile fashion. A bivalve speculum was placed in the vagina, and the anterior lip of the cervix was grasped with a single toothed tenaculum. A laparoscopic bilateral tubal ligation uterine manipulator was placed into the endocervical canal and articulated with the tenaculum. The speculum was removed from the vagina.

An infraumbilical incision was made with a scalpel, then while tenting upon the abdomen, a Verres needle was admitted into the intra-abdominal cavity. A saline drop test was performed and noted to be within normal limits. Pneumoperitoneum was attained with 4 liters of carbon dioxide. The Verres needle was removed, and a 10 mm trocar and sleeve were advanced into the intra-abdominal cavity while tenting up on the abdomen. The laparoscope was inserted and proper location was confirmed. A second incision was made 2 cm above the symphysis pubis, and a 5 mm trocar and sleeve were inserted into the abdomen under laparoscopic visualization without complication.

A survey revealed normal pelvic and abdominal anatomy. A Falope ring applicator was advanced through the second trocar sleeve, and the left Fallopian tube was identified, followed out to the fimbriated end, and grasped 4 cm from the cornual region. The Falope ring was applied to a knuckle of tube and good blanching was noted at the site of application. No bleeding was observed from the mesosalpinx. The Falope ring applicator was reloaded, and a Falope ring was applied in a similar fashion to the opposite tube. Carbon dioxide was allowed to escape from the abdomen.

The instruments were removed, and the skin incisions were closed with #3-O Vicryl in a subcuticular fashion. The instruments were removed from the vagina, and excellent hemostasis was noted. The patient tolerated the procedure well, and sponge, lap and needle counts were correct times two. The patient was taken to the recovery room in stable condition.

I found a bunch of techniques, but not this one.

She is presenting with  __________ s/l evidenting tri-eed trian pregnancy at 17 weeks 4 days gestation

You type it 40-4/7 weeks. That means 40 weeks, 4 days.

I've seen adjusted ultrasonic age and actual ultrasonic age, anyone know what this really is?

The s/l Kroenerk cervical catheter and single-tooth tenaculum were removed.  There was no evidence of active bleeding.

Doctor says patient has had _______lar or ______ ler pregnancy. She has a chld with pyloric stenosis.

Any ideas?

I have a dictator that said, "The child was born at term.  Mom was 24 weeks' gestation."  I always thought term was somewhere around 36+ weeks.  He went on to say the birth weight was 6 pounds 13 ounces.  Just from experience, I would think a 24-week gestation infant would not weigh that much.

Anyone in OB care to comment?
