Peak pregnancy rates occur within several months following tubal reversal procedures. An HSG may be used 6 months or more after a reanastomosis to test the tubes to be sure they are still open. Duke University offers tubal reanastomosis procedures in our outpatient surgery center.
Patients can recover over night under nursing care without being admitted to the hospital.
This allows for a significant reduction in cost while maintaining the safety of trained observation following the procedure. If you would like to discuss your options for tubal reanastomosis or would like to compare reanastomosis to IVF please contact the appointments office to schedule a meeting with one of our physicians. We can answer any questions you may have about your individual situation and help you to decide what your best option may be. If possible, bring copies of operative reports, pathology reports, or any HSG done after the tubal procedure. We can assist you in obtaining these documents if you are uncertain how to obtain them.
