Laparoscopic salpingectomy and removal of Essure hysteroscopic sterilisation device: a case series.

CONCLUSION: This case series suggests that laparoscopic salpingectomy for removal of Essure inserts is safe and feasible. We acknowledge that the numbers were small. However, consistent use of a laparoscopic approach in these eight patients indicates that this procedure is a feasible and suitable alternative to hysterectomy.
