Inguinal Vasoplasty
Summary
The present paper is based on a study of eighty-two cases of vasoplasty done through an inguinal approach. In all the cases, 3/0 prolene splint was used. An end-to-end anastomosis, using 6/0 prolene suture provides and accurate repair. This is a simple method and ensures a high success rate. In 71.3% cases semen became positive for sperms. Conception rate was 56% in our series. The authors prefer this approach because of easy mobilisation of vas, gain in length of vas by about 1.5 cm. after division of internal oblique muscle and inferior epigastric artery. There is less chance of infection by this approach and technique.
