Patient's question:
I've been married for several years, and so far, we haven't had any children. I'm very anxious about it and don't know if it's my problem. I've asked my husband to get checked, but he refuses. I'm afraid my condition will worsen. Could you please tell me what expenses are usually involved in treating blocked vas deferens?Doctor's answer:
Epididymal obstruction can be treated. There are many causes of epididymal obstruction, primarily related to trauma or surgical injury. Most men who have undergone inguinal hernia repair or similar procedures may develop epididymal obstruction during the surgery. A small portion is also related to inflammatory stenosis, where inflammation forms scars, ultimately leading to impaired lumen communication. In addition to congenital abnormalities causing epididymal obstruction, in general, surgical reanastomosis is highly recommended for epididymal obstruction. It is advised to perform precise anastomosis, and there is also a significant possibility of reobstruction after the surgery.
