      <title>What Everyone Should Know About Tubal Reversal Surgery</title>
      <description>Dr. Berger's "Reversal Illustrations" page on Chapel Hill Tubal Reversal Center's website shows pictures of how Dr. Berger repairs the fallopian tubes and explains his technique in detail: "After opening the blocked ends of the remaining tubal segments, a narrow flexible stent is gently threaded through their inner cavities or lumens into the uterine cavity. This ensures that the fallopian tube is open from the uterine cavity to its fimbrial end. The newly created tubal openings are then drawn next to each other by placing a retention suture in the connective tissue that lies beneath the fallopian tubes. The retention suture avoids the likelihood of the tubal segments subsequently pulling apart. Microsurgical sutures are used to precisely align the muscular portion (muscularis) and outer layer (serosa), while avoiding the inner layer (mucosa), of the fallopian tube. The tubal stent is then gently withdrawn from the fimbrial end of the tube."</description>

   <title>Here's a Quick Way To Get Started With Your Tubal Reversal Surgery</title>
   <description>Dr. Berger has performed over 6000 tubal ligation reversal procedures. The success of the procedure depends on several factors, including a woman's age, the type of sterilization performed and the length of healthy tube remaining following surgery. The best way to determine what your success rate may be is with the operative report and, if applicable, the pathology report from your tubal ligation. This information can be obtained from your doctor's office or from the medical records department of the hospital where you had your procedure performed. Our staff members are available 7 days a week to answer any questions that you may have or assist you in scheduling your procedure.</description>

      <title>Screening Laparoscopy As Insurance Prior To Tubal Reversal Surgery</title>
      <description>Many women who chose Dr. Berger as their tubal reversal doctor also chose to have him begin by assessing the tubes via laparoscopy. This may also be recommended in cases where the amount of tube remaining is questionable. Fortunately, Chapel Hill Tubal Reversal Center offers a Laparoscopy Package to patients with a body mass index of less than 30. With screening laparoscopy, Dr. Berger performs the procedure just prior to the reversal. That way you do not have to undergo anesthesia and surgery twice.  He looks in with the laparoscope and, if good tubal lengths remain, goes directly to tubal repair. Although there is an additional charge to add the screening laparoscopy, with this option you will receive a significant portion of the total surgery fee in refund should we find that the tubes have been very damaged and stop the procedure following the screening laparoscopy.</description>

  <title>What Everybody Ought To Know About Whether A Dye Test Is Needed During Tubal Reversal Surgery</title>
  <description>One question that we are commonly asked is whether Dr. Berger uses the dye technique or a stent to ensure the tubes are open following tubal reversal surgery. The use of the dye technique is not the most accurate indicator regarding whether the tubes are open following tubal repair to allow conception. The stent technique is the better approach in our opinion to avoid any doubt. The stent is sterile and does not pass through the cervix. The stent not damage the tubes, and it ensures that they are open so a dye test is not necessary. With the stent technique used by Dr. Berger, there is no question regarding tubal patency following surgery, which puts you in a much better position for achieving pregnancy following surgery.</description>
