Tubal Ligation Reversal

Department of Tubal Ligation Reversal

Tubal ligation reversal is surgery to undo a tubal ligation. A tubal ligation reversal reconnects or reopens your tubes, creating a passageway for eggs and sperm to unite so that conception can occur. It reverses a tubal ligation, allowing you to become pregnant again.

Tubal ligation reversal is also called tubal reversal, tubal sterilization reversal and tubal reanastomosis.

Before

Before undergoing Tubal Ligation Reversal, various tests may be conducted to assess the reproductive health of the individual. Common tests include:

1.Hysterosalpingogram (HSG): An X-ray procedure to check the condition of the fallopian tubes and assess whether they are suitable for reversal.

2.Pelvic Examination: A physical examination to assess the health of the reproductive organs, including the uterus and fallopian tubes.

Types

1.Tubal Anastomosis: A surgical procedure where the blocked or tied portions of the fallopian tubes are reconnected, allowing the possibility of natural conception.

2.Salpingostomy: Another surgical approach where the blocked portion of the fallopian tube is opened to create a new opening, increasing the chances of egg and sperm meeting.

Treatment

Tubal ligation reversal surgery lasts about two to three hours and takes place in a hospital. You’ll be able to go home the day of your operation.

The procedure your healthcare provider uses will determine what happens during surgery. With mini-laparotomy, your provider makes a single 2-inch side to side incision just below your bikini line and performs the surgery through the cut using an operating microscope. With robotic-assisted laparoscopy, your provider operates a console that controls the robotic arms that perform surgery through several small incisions in your abdomen.
