Patient's question:
My husband suffers from vas deferens obstruction, which results in azoospermia. How is vas deferens obstruction treated?Doctor's answer:
After the vas deferens is blocked, it interferes with normal male fertility, leading to obstruction of the spermatic duct. During treatment, the cause must be controlled first. For cases caused by infectious factors, thorough elimination of the infection is necessary before treatment. If there is a tumor present, it needs to be removed. The choice can be made to perform a vas deferens-epididymis anastomosis, which is generally suitable for inflammation at the tail of the epididymis. For cases involving intestinal obstruction at the vas deferens, the obstructed segment can be resected, or a vas deferens-end-to-end anastomosis can be performed.
