Abstract
Publications relating to surgical procedures for sterilization have been reviewed, and the incidences of complications and subsequent pregnancies compared. Laparoscopic sterilization has the lowest incidence of complication, the morbidity rate being lower than that of laparotomy sterilization or hysterectomy, and the mortality rate lower than that of a single pregnancy or taking oral contraceptives for 1 year.Keywords: Colposcopy--complications; Colpotomy--statistics; Comparative Studies; Contraception; Contraception Failure; Contraceptive Usage; Endoscopy; Examinations And Diagnoses; Family Planning; Female Sterilization--complications; Gynecologic Surgery; Hysterectomy--complications; Hysterectomy--statistics; Laparoscopy--statistics; Laparotomy--complications; Laparotomy--statistics; Literature Review; Mortality; Physical Examinations And Diagnoses; Research Methodology; Statistical Studies; Sterilization, Sexual; Studies; Surgery; Treatment; Urogenital Surgery; Women
