Patient's question:
I have been married for a while without having children, but recently in the past year, I've wanted to have a child. However, my wife just can't get pregnant, and I'm very worried about it. Recently, I've been experiencing frequent urination and pain during urination, as well as lower back pain. It's prostatitis. I took my wife to the hospital for a check-up, but she was fine. It turned out to be prostatitis that caused the blockage of my vas deferens. How is the blockage of the vas deferens treated?Doctor's answer:
Vasovasostomy is primarily used to treat iatrogenic injury to the vas deferens, incomplete development of a segment of the vas deferens, and the need for reconnection after vasectomy. Male patients with obstruction at the proximal epididymal end of the vas deferens or at the efferent ductules of the epididymis can be treated with vasovasostomy combined with epididymal-vas deferens anastomosis. Patients with obstructive lesions in the vas deferens or epididymal tail, as well as those who have failed conventional vasostomy, may also undergo surgical treatment.
