Does vas deferens blockage cause azoospermia?

Patient's question:

My family has only one boy, and everyone is looking forward to the arrival of a little baby soon. However, my wife has not been able to conceive for a long time. We went to the hospital for a thorough examination, and the doctor said that it was because of my blocked vas deferens and the absence of sperm that my wife couldn't get pregnant. What kind of help do you need: Can a blocked vas deferens cause azoospermia?

Doctor's answer:

The infertility caused by vas deferens obstruction is still curable. You have normal testicular sperm production function, but due to blocked vas deferens, sperm cannot be expelled outside the body, which is called obstructive azoospermia. This condition can still be cured as long as the blockage of your vas deferens and its location are identified. The doctor can then develop an appropriate treatment plan to unblock your obstructed vas deferens. Your semen will then be able to be expelled.
