Restoring Your Fertility With Vasectomy Reversal
Vasectomy Reversal Surgery
Vasectomy reversal is a delicate microsurgical procedure. There are two surgical techniques that may be used to restore your fertility. Vasovasostomy, the more common of the two, involves reattaching the ends of the van deferens together. If, however, Dr. Lipshultz does not find sperm and fluid in the vas deferens during your operation, an epididymovasostomy will be performed. This technique involves the connection of the vas deferens directly to the epididymis, a long tube where sperm are stored and transported from the testis into the vas.
