title: [Morbidity from bilateral tubal ligation, via laparoscopy].
abstract: From January 1, 1987 January 30, 1990, 374 laparoscopic sterilizations using silastic rings (Falope), were carried out. Morbidity and main risk factors, were analyzed. More frequent surgical complications were: mesosalpinx rupture, and fallopian tube rupture in 22 cases (5.8%); abdominal wall emphysema, three cases (0.8%), uterine perforation, two cases (0.5%); other pelvic structures lesions, three cases (0.8%). Morbidity risk factors were: previous abdominal surgery, obesity, salpingitis, use of an uterine mobilizer in a puerperal uterus, and practice of tubal occlusion during the luteal phase of cycle, due to possibility of luteal phase pregnancy; therefore, if a risk factor is present, it is advisable to use other contraceptive technique.
