[Microsurgical vaso-vasostomy: a reliable method of vasectomy reversal].
An original microsurgical technique has been used since 1971 to reverse the vasectomies of 2,110 men. Both sides were anastomosed if possible using a meticulous two layered technique with further reinforcing sutures to prevent strain on the join. Other important points include testing the fluid emerging from the testicular end, checking patency of the prostatic end and insisting on good scrotal support in the recovery phase, particularly the important first few days. The series returned a 95% baby rate, with a return of sperm to the ejaculate in 93% of cases.
