Vasectomy- the ultimate male contraceptive Part 8

Vasclip

Dividing the vas deferens always complicates the reversal if one is required. With advances in technology, microclips have been used to block sperm transfer across the vas deferens. Reversal from the Vasclip is much easier than if the vas deferens was divided. The Vasclip procedure may be done either with a no scalpel technique or via an incision.

Results reveal that when the vas is not divided, the time to recovery is short and there are fewer complications. Results of reversibility after Vasclip indicate that reversal is a lot easier than after surgical division of the vas. However, the procedure should be considered permanent.
