Medical - Medical (general) / tubal occlusion/female sterilization

French term or phrase: stérilisation par voie coelioscopique

Hello

I would like confirmation that this = laparoscopic tubal occlusion.

Cette question est extrêmement importante puisqu'elle va probablement entrer dans des facteurs de discrimination entre les techniques de stérilisation par voie coelioscopique et les techniques par voie hystéroscopique.

Thank you!

English translation:laparoscopic sterilisation

Explanation:
The end result is indeed occlusion of the tubes, but the procedure is generally called "ligation". However, I think in the context you give the translation ought to be "sterilisation" rather than "ligation" or "occlusion", as ligation is a form of sterilisation (undoubtedly the author means "tubal ligation" but he/she doesn't explicitly say so, and I think it wouldn't be right to say so in English).

The reference contains an explanation of the procedure, aimed at patients.

You're quite right to assume that "coelioscopique" means "laparoscopic". No colons involved.

sterilization by entering through the colon

Explanation:
Can be rephrased various ways. Of course, in UK English,
it would be sterilisation with an s, not a z.
