Case Discussion
Essure is one of the less commonly undertaken forms of sterilization.
The Essure device is inserted into the fallopian tubes by a catheter via the transcervical route. It is composed of inner polyethylene terephthalate fibers to induce a benign fibrotic reaction and is held in place by flexible stainless steel inner coil and a dynamic outer nickel titanium alloy coil.
