Understanding Tubal Ligation Reversal Surgery

Tubal Ligation Reversal Surgery (TLRS) offers a beacon of hope for women who wish to regain their fertility after undergoing tubal ligation. This procedure has the potential to significantly restore natural fertility, opening the door to the possibility of pregnancy.

Endorsed by the American Society for Reproductive Medicine (ASRM), tubal reanastomosis stands out as a highly effective method for reversing tubal sterilization. The ASRM advocates for this surgery as a preferable option to in-vitro fertilization (IVF), highlighting its superior cumulative pregnancy rates and cost-effectiveness, even for women aged 40 and above. This support underscores the procedure’s viability and success in offering women a path back to natural conception.

Designed to provide the best in surgical care, our facilities ensure your journey is supported by the latest advancements in tubal reversal procedures.

HOW WE DO IT

The crucial point to understand is that the fallopian tubes can be smaller than 1/10th of an inch in diameter, necessitating advanced technology and a surgical microscope for proper magnification and precision.
At our center, we utilize the most advanced surgical microscope, operated by double board-certified microsurgery expert. The most important take-home message is simply that.

The primary benefit of tubal reversal for our patients is its effectiveness. Nestled in vibrant Los Angeles, California, our center offers solutions that extend beyond mere effectiveness. With over 25 years of expertise, we specialize in a safe, cost-effective approach to tubal reversal surgery.

Under the care of our board-certified expert, patients undergo a minimally invasive procedure. This is performed through a small 5 cm (2 in) incision, utilizing specialized microsurgery techniques, enhancing success rates while minimizing postoperative discomfort and enabling a swift, smooth recovery. During the 40 to 70-minute procedure, a specialized tube is gently inserted into the uterus to allow the passage of dye through the fallopian tubes, confirming their patency and ensuring optimal outcomes.

Patients are discharged post-operatively the same day with pain management and antibiotics, supported by 24/7 access to their surgeon’s cell phone for any concerns.

While all surgeries carry inherent risks, our experience shows that immediate risks are minimal at our center. We provide comprehensive guidance to mitigate the risk of ectopic pregnancy, including early monitoring protocols. In the rare event of an ectopic pregnancy, our tailored approach, which includes medical intervention and close follow-up, ensures the utmost safety and care for our patients’ fertility journeys.

Serial hCG testing, individual pelvic ultrasound, and medical treatment with methotrexate can effectively treat most early ectopic pregnancies.

WHAT IS ESSURE?

Essure is a form of tubal occlusion. A hysteroscope ( a device that scopes inside of the uterus) is used to place two separate sterile metallic coils into each fallopian tube. They stimulate an inflammatory response and scar into the lining of the fallopian tube. This is how they occlude the fallopian tubes where they connect to the uterus. Essure was first approved by FDA for use in the United States in 2002.

In September 2015, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) convened a meeting of the Obstetrics and Gynecology Advisory Board Committee to address the sudden increase of patient-reported adverse events surrounding Essure, a sterile coil that is inserted into the fallopian tube through hysteroscopy. After a review of the premarketing and postmarketing data and existing scientific literature, the FDA concluded there was insufficient evidence to remove the device from the market. However, the FDA did release a new guidance document requiring a black box warning for the device and ordered a new postmarketing study comparing Essure’s safety and efficacy with laparoscopic tubal sterilization. 

These were all due to extensive complications such as experienced complications such as:

  • pain
  • cramping
  • vaginal bleeding
  • pelvic or back discomfort
  • headaches
  • nausea and/or vomiting
  • Fatigue
  • Weight changes
  • Hair loss
  • Mood changes and depression
  • Allergy and hypersensitivity reactions
  • Joint or muscle pain
  • Muscle weakness

For these reasons, many patients desire to have their Essure coils removed from their body regardless of their future plans for pregnancy. Patients travel  nationally and internationally to come to our center to have their Essure coils removed or removed and reversed with a desire for future pregnancy. We have the most seasoned Essure removal and reversal experts at our center. Don’t wait! Get those coils out of your body.

GETTING PREGNANT AFTER ESSURE

Two choices exist.

  1. in-vitro fertilization (IVF)
  2. Essure removal and reversal

We specialize in the surgical removal of Essure coils and surgical reversal of Essure sterilization.  Isthmic –Interstitial ( two anatomical segments of the fallopian tube with the smallest caliber could be re-connected in expert hands utilizing a special microscope. Alternatively, re-implantation of the fallopian tubes into the uterus could also be done. Our experts perform this procedure under general anesthesia through a small 5 cm (2in) (fig 2) incision into your lower bikini line. We use a special microscope. This is to improve success rates and help reduce postoperative pain while improving fast and smooth postoperative recovery. Surgery is about 2 hours in uncomplicated cases. Patients go home the same day on painkillers and antibiotics. Patients will have 24-7 access directly to the surgeon’s cell phone for any and all concerns.

 

The literature lacks evidence-based articles to explore different techniques, success rates, complications, and outcome measurements. It is unclear what the effects of the Essure micro-insert devices are on IVF success rates and pregnancy outcomes.  Pregnancy with Essures in place may have its own risks. Maternity candidates should make themselves aware of the composition of the Essure micro-insert system and reasons for concern with pregnancy.

ESSURE REMOVAL

It should be done in expert hands. The coils should be removed in their entirety. They tend to get fragmented and broken if not properly handled. That could continue to give the patient the same symptoms and complications that we discussed above.

Hysterectomy

Through different approaches, i.e. abdominal, vaginal or laparoscopically assisted methods this is a straight forward outpatient surgery in the hands of our experts. This method does not involve removing of the ovaries that are the woman’s source of hormone production.

Complete bilateral Salpingectomy

This involves complete removal of both fallopian tubes. Must be done meticulously in expert hands to remove both Essures without fragmentation. This could be achieved through laparoscopic approach with 10 millimeters ( less than half of an inch) incisions. This procedure also helps reduce the chances of ovarian and fallopian tube cancers.

Partial bilateral salpingectomy

Only the segments of the fallopian tubes that contain the Essures would be removed. This could also be achieved through laparoscopic approach with 10 millimeters ( less than half of an inch) incisions.

Salpingostomy and Essure removal

This technique is used to just extract the Essure coils and their surrounding fibrotic scar tissues utilizing a special microscope. In expert hands, this method is more commonly used if Essure reversal and future pregnancy is desired.

Our Clients Reviews

5/5
"I was very happy with the experience. At first I was hesitant to fly to another State. First I had a phone consultation, and still wasn't sure. So I had another one. I liked the doctor and the staff. Every time I needed something they were always there. I finally had it done, and was a little frustrated when after five months I wasn't pregnant so I had another phone consult. The doctor ordered a test and only after it showed my tubes were open could I relax. Ten months later I'm PREGNANT!!!!!!!!!!! THANK YOU."

“I had a tubal reversal done at this center and both the doctor and his staff were really great and answered all of my questions. The doctor here told me from the beginning there are never any guarantees and you have to understand that going into this but that after he performed the surgery I would have a great chance of conceiving. I think for those of you who have not became pregnant yet just relax and don't stress on it so much, remember good things come when you least expect it.”

“I had my tubal reversal surgery a year and a half ago. I got pregnant six months after the surgery. The doctor and staff were great and always were there to answer any questions I had. Initially I was thinking of doing the In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) but I am glad I decided to have the Tubal Ligation Reversal procedure instead. It was effective and cost much less than IVF.”
C. J.
“My name is Phyllis and I live in northern California. I was 39 years old and had mild lupus when I had my tubal reversal done at this center in Los Angeles. The doctor at this center explained everything to us and that the surgery was not guaranteed. He gave us a small chance of pregnancy. I got pregnant 3 months later and had our baby girl. I did have a highrisk pregnancy but all went well. Both the doctor and his staff were great. ”
