Abstract

Selective salpingography with fluoroscopic guidance was used to perform fallopian tubal occlusion by using n-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate in two women. No other method of sterilization was possible, and a new pregnancy was considered to be life threatening. After 4 years of follow-up, neither woman had become pregnant. Tubal occlusion with n-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate is a safe, effective and inexpensive means of sterilization that provides long-term occlusion.
