Essure coil removal was previously performed at our facility by applying direct traction on the Essure micro-inserts. Although this was simpler and faster than the procedure we now perform, manual traction on the coils frequently resulted in coil breakage and increased the chance of leaving residual Essure fragments. We now perform a precise en bloc […]

When performing Essure removal surgery, we use a uterine tourniquet. This practice makes Essure removal surgery easier, safer, and allows us more precision during coil dissection. A uterine tourniquet allows better hemostasis during Essure removal surgery. Better hemostasis decreases surgeon anxiety. Our visualization is better when hemostasis is adequate. Better visualization allows for a more […]

Removing Essure devices intact can be done with manual traction. In our experience, we have found this is most easily done within the first several months of insertion and before the inserts become locked in place from fibroelastic tissue. With gradual in-growth of fibroelastic tissue, removing Essure micro-inserts will become increasingly more difficult to remove […]

The Essure device is 4 cm long. The manufacturer recommends 3 to 8 turns of the outer coil be allowed to project into the uterine cavity to insure adequate placement. When properly placed approximately 1 to 2 cm of the Essure device should project beyond the myometrial wall and into the isthmic section of each fallopian […]

Avoiding leaving Essure fragments during Essure removal requires awareness of the anatomic variations of the interstitial portion of the fallopian tube. Anatomic variations may contribute to increased difficulty with some Essure insertions, be the cause for some Essure complications, and may increase the difficulty of intact micro-insert removal. Anatomic variations in the interstitial portion of the tube will result […]
