A successful microsurgical reanastomosis program in a community hospital. 1986

D I Galen, and A Jacobson

Microsurgical tubal reversal (MTR) can now be performed at the community-hospital level with excellent results if meticulous attention is paid to intraoperative surgical details. An initial series of 15 patients underwent MTR, with a term pregnancy rate of 87%. No postoperative complications occurred, and no postoperative hydroperturbations or second-look laparoscopies were performed.
