Abstract
A case of laparoscopic reversal of tubal sterilization is reported. Th e patient was a 38 year old woman sterilized by bipolar diathermia two years earlier. Refertilization was performed by laparoscopic end to e nd anastomosis of one tube. Postoperatively, the patient had one menst ruation and then achieved an intrauterine pregnancy. The laparoscopic method of refertilization saves expensive hospitalization costs.
