Abstrakt: |
Endometrial ablation is used extensively to treat dysfunctional bleeding. Since the introduction of Essure tubal sterilization, this permanent contraception method has been widely used. Both endometrial ablation and Essure sterilization are procedures reported to have only a few complications. We describe a serious infectious complication shortly after an endometrial ablation in a patient with Essure microinserts in situ. To our knowledge, this complication has not been reported before in patients with Essure microinserts in situ. We suggest administering prophylactic antibiotics before endometrial ablation in women with Essure microinserts in situ. |
