Journal Title: Journal of Evolution of Medical and Dental Sciences - Year 2016, Vol 5, Issue 42
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare the technique of PNS and DPLS and to highlight the advantages and disadvantages of each method. METHODS We performed 1800 mini lap tubectomies and 1800 DPLS and compared the events during the operation, post-operative events and complications. RESULTS Most of the women were between 22 and 25 years and opted for sterilization with two children in both the groups. More incidence of haemorrhage, injury to bladder in two cases of PNS and intestinal injury in one case of PNS is seen. More congenital anomalies were observed in DPLS cases (Co-incidental finding). More post-operative pain requiring analgesics for a longer period and surgical site infection was seen in PNS. Omental prolapse was seen in one case of DPLS. Incisional hernia was seen in two cases of PNS.
