“…4 Furthermore, our case highlights the importance of follow-up HSG. Given the fact that uterine or fallopian tube perforation may not be detected at the time of hysteroscopic placement of the Essure microinsert, follow-up HSG serves as an important imaging tool to confirm proper microinsert placement and tubal occlusion.…”

“…2 The Essure system (Conceptus, Mountain View, California) uses microinserts that are placed by hysteroscopy into the proximal portions of each fallopian tube, where they induce fibrotic tubal occlusion. 3,4 Despite its safety and technical feasibility, complications are known to occur in up to 3% of women undergoing this method of permanent sterilization. 4 Perforation of the uterus or fallopian tube during microinsert placement, with subsequent migration of the microinsert, is a well-documented complication that may or may not cause symptoms.…”

“…The transcervical approach is an alternative to incisional procedures for interval tubal sterilization eliminating surgery and general anesthesia. However, development of a safe and effective transcervical method of sterilization is a challenging task [1], as it requires both reliable method of tubal occlusion and actuator for its safe delivery and effective deployment.…”
