Chances Of Reversal Of Bilateral Salpingo Fulguration Procedure

Hi,
I am trying to understand my operative report I received from my Ob. I had a bilateral salpingo fulguration done in 2009. It says it was done approximately 2cm length and to a current of zero. What exactly was done so I can understand it. I would like to know my chances of reversal of this procedure.

Thank you,
Whitney

Hello and welcome to HCM,
There are various methods to clamp the fallopian tube.
Salpingo-fulguration is one of them.
In salpingo-fulguration a small length of fallopian tube is removed.
It is not possible to reverse this procedure.

Thanks and take care
Dr Shailja P Wahal
