Abstract
There has been a rapid increase in the number of female sterilisations performed over the last 6 years. The reasons for this together with the indications for sterilisation are discussed. The different forms of sterilisation operation currently performed are discussed and an attempt made to evaluate the relative merits of each. A series of 810 laparoscopic sterilisations performed in the Western Infirmary, Glasgow, is presented and the results discussed. The view is expressed that this form of sterilisation may well become the method of choice in most gynaecological units within the next 5 years.
