Essure® removal in 10 steps
Journal Title: Journal of the Turkish-German Gynecological Association - Year 2021, Vol 22, Issue 1
Abstract
Many women request Essure® removal because of possible side effects related to the device itself. Laparoscopic Essure® removal in symptomatic women may be associated with improvement in quality of life. We aim to describe the surgical technique in ten steps in the accompanying video as the standardization of the laparoscopic Essure® removal procedure could help to diminish the risk of fractures of the device with this easy and safe 10-step procedure.
