Tubal reversal pregnancy rates Tubal reversals of tubal ring or clip procedures were the most successful, followed by coagulation and ligation/resection procedures, but the differences in pregnancy rates for the latter two methods were relatively small (Table 4). Pregnancy rates taking into account both age and tubal ligation type are shown in Table 5. Of the two variables (age and tubal ligation method), age appears to be the more important factor in predicting the likelihood of pregnancy after tubal ligation reversal at Chapel Hill Tubal Reversal Center. www.drberger.org /tubalreversal_pregnancy_rates.htm

Tubal ligation reversal by Dr. Berger. Tubal ligation reversal is a highly successful treatment for couples who want to have a baby after a tubal ligation. Tubal ligation reversal enables women to conceive naturally and is the best treatment for most women wanting to become pregnant again after having their tubes tied. We are here to make tubal reversal comfortable, affordable, and successful - and we want you to have the most complete and accurate information available about all aspects of female sterilization reversal. www.tubal-reversal.net

Infertility, Miscarriage, and Ectopic Pregnancy Tutorials Recurrent pregnancy losses (miscarriages) are also considered part of infertility since the couple is not able to carry a pregnancy to viability (point at which survival is possible). Once a couple has had two or three consecutive pregnancy losses, it is appropriate to consider a thorough evaluation. Ectopic pregnancies (pregnancies that grow outside the mother’s uterus or womb) are dangerous since they can rupture (and result in life threatening bleeding) and they signal a significant problem within the mother’s pelvis. www.infertilitytutorials.com

Laparoscopy.com - LAPAROSCOPIC SALPINGECTOMY FOR ECTOPIC PREGNANCY. Victor Blut presents a laparoscopic left salpingectomy after attempted salpingostomy for a left tubal ectopic pregnancy in a 32-year-old gravida 3 para 2. The patient lacked risk factors for an ectopic pregnancy such as a history of PID, operative trauma, or tumors. Because she wished to retain her fertility, a salpingostomy was initially attempted to save the tube, but hemorrhage and retained trophoblastic tissue dictated a partial salpingectomy, removal of part of the tube. www.laparoscopy.com /pictures/ectopic.html

Tubal pregnancy - Medical Dictionary definitions of popular medical terms Tubal pregnancies are the most common type of extrauterine or ectopic pregnancy, accounting for the large majority (95%) of all extrauterine pregnancies. Tubal pregnancy: A pregnancy that is not in the usual place within the uterus but is located in the Fallopian tube. The pain, often one-sided, may be in the pelvis, abdomen or even in the shoulder or neck (due to blood from a ruptured tubal pregnancy building up under the diaphragm and the pain being "referred" up to the shoulder or neck). www.medicinenet.com /script/main/art.asp?li=mni&articlekey=8601

Tubal Reversal vs IVF: Pregnancy Outcomes Birth/ongoing pregnancy rates declined while miscarriage and ectopic pregnancy rates increased with shorter tubal lengths (Table 7). The pregnancy rate declined as tubal length decreased, but even women with the shortest tubes (less than 2.5 cm) became pregnant (32%). Tubal lengths of the study participants were measured by Dr. Berger during surgery, as is routine for all tubal reversal surgeries performed at Chapel Hill Tubal Reversal Center. www.drberger.org /tubalreversal_pregnancy_outcomes.htm

Ectopic Pregnancy (a.k.a. Tubal Pregnancy) An ectopic pregnancy occurs when the embryo never makes it to the uterus and starts to develop in the fallopian tube. The consequences of an ectopic pregnancy may be upsetting. Once the ectopic pregnancy is confirmed, you will need emergency surgery and a skilled surgeon. my.webmd.com /content/article/3/1680_51232

eMedicine - Ectopic Pregnancy : Article by Vicken Sepilian, MD In 1996, Clausen reported on a review of the past 40 years and concluded that only a small number of investigators have suggested indirectly that conservative tubal surgery increases the rate of subsequent intrauterine pregnancy, and the more recent studies may reflect an improvement in surgical technique. Medical therapy of ectopic pregnancy is appealing over surgical options for a number of reasons, including eliminating morbidity from surgery and general anesthesia, potentially less tubal damage, and less cost and need for hospitalization.

HealthCentral - General Encyclopedia - Ectopic pregnancy Forms of ectopic pregnancy, other than tubal, are probably not preventable, however, tubal pregnancies, which make up the majority of ectopic pregnancies, may be prevented in some cases by avoiding those conditions that might cause scarring of the Fallopian tubes. Women who have had surgery to reverse previous tubal sterilization in order to become pregnant also have an increased risk of ectopic pregnancy (when reversal is successful). Some ectopic pregnancies can be traced to congenital tubal abnormalities, endometriosis, tubal scarring and kinking caused by a ruptured appendix, scarring caused by previous tubal surgery and prior ectopic pregnancies. www.healthcentral.com /mhc/top/000895.cfm

Welcome to Greenview's Web Site An ectopic pregnancy is a pregnancy that grows in a location other than the lining of the uterus. If diagnosed while the ectopic pregnancy is still small and has not ruptured, methotrexate can be given to some patients to prevent further growth and avoid surgery. About 85% of the women who have experienced one ectopic pregnancy are later able to achieve a normal pregnancy. ehc.healthgate.com /GetContent.asp?siteid=392EC85D-B120-11D3-AD18-00508B91A0DD&docid=/dci/ectopicpreg

Leading Article Less than 20% of women with ectopic pregnancy are asymptomatic but at risk because of a past history of ectopic pregnancy (there is a recurrency rate of approximately 10%), previous tubal surgery or assisted conception. Pregnancies occurring outside the uterine cavity but strictly within the fallopian tube are known as tubal pregnancies, while extrauterine (or ectopic) pregnancies include ovarian and abdominal pregnancies, as well as those implanting in the oviduct. Treatment of ectopic pregnancy entails numerous choices by the gynaecologist: (1) whether or not to attempt it medically or surgically (expectant vs surgical or medical treatment); (2) choice of route (laparoscopy, laparotomy, sonographic or transcervical); (3) choice of operation (conservative vs radical); (4) choice of surgical approach (standard techniques vs microsurgery). www.medforum.nl /gynfo/leading4.htm

Interventions for tubal ectopic pregnancy (Cochrane Review) Systemic methotrexate in a single dose intramuscular regimen is not effective enough in eliminating the tubal pregnancy compared to laparoscopic salpingostomy. Injection of this drug, both under laparoscopic guidance and under ultrasound guidance, is significantly less successful in the elimination of tubal pregnancy. Main results: Laparoscopic conservative surgery is significantly less successful than the open surgical approach in the elimination of tubal pregnancy due to a higher persistent trophoblast rate of laparoscopic surgery. www.update-software.com /abstracts/ab000324.htm

Ectopic pregnancy or tubal pregnancy tutorial Identification of an intrauterine pregnancy with an ultrasound exam is very helpful in reducing the likelihood of (ruling out) an ectopic pregnancy. This is unfortunate since early diagnosis of ectopic pregnancy is critically important to reduce overall morbidity to the pregnant woman and allow more conservative treatment of this abnormal and dangerous pregnancy. It is important to have a high index of suspicion for ectopic pregnancy since ectopic pregnancy symptoms can be subtle or misleading. www.infertilitytutorials.com /ectopic.cfm

Update on the Current Management Tubal Pregnancy Follow-up of patients treated for tubal pregnancy regardless of which procedure is performed, shows a pregnancy rate of 66 percent with 90 percent intrauterine pregnancy. While repeat tubal pregnancy rates following both radical and conservative management are quite similar, the intrauterine pregnancy rate seems to be higher following conservative tubal surgery 60 percent respectively). Thus, it is accepted that a conservative approach should be attempted whenever a distal tubal pregnancy is diagnosed, especially when the woman desires her fertility potential. www.laramededucation.com /ucmtubal_preg1.html

CDC Media Relations: CDC Researchers Report Increased Risk of Ectopic Pregnancy After Tubal Sterilization, Released 3/97 by the CDC Office of Communications, Division of Media Relations Ectopic pregnancy, also known as a tubal pregnancy, is a potentially life-threatening form of pregnancy where implantation of the fertilized egg occurs outside the uterus. Ectopic pregnancy after tubal sterilization is not rare, particularly among women sterilized before age 30," said Dr. Herbert Peterson of CDC's National Center for Chronic Disease Prevention and Health Promotion, principal author of the report. Researchers from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), and others, report that ectopic pregnancy after tubal sterilization is more common than previously thought. www.cdc.gov /od/oc/media/pressrel/ectopic.htm

Catholic Morality - Ectopic Tubal Pregnancy - Ask Father The removal of an ectopic (tubal) pregnancy is always necessary to save the mother's life. They have also stated that the condition of ectopic pregnancy falls within the category they call "pathological", which means a severe disfunction distorting the normal course of things. If it were possible (as it might very well be before too very long!) for micro- surgeons to *invade* the tube and re-implant the fetus in its proper location, then it would be the option which should be chosen rather than the tubal excision. www.cin.org /ch960915.html
