    Area of Science:

    • Urology
    • Surgical Procedures
    • Male Reproductive Health

    Background:

    • Vasectomy is a common surgical procedure for male sterilization.
    • Ensuring the long-term efficacy of vasectomy requires meticulous surgical technique and reliable confirmation of sterility.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the outcomes of vasectomy procedures performed at the University Central Hospital of Helsinki.
    • To emphasize critical factors for successful vasectomy and confirm sterility.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of 90 vasectomy operations performed between 1972 and 1973.
    • Surgical technique involved resection and ligation of the vas deferens with separation of cut ends.
    • Ambulatory procedure under local anesthesia.

    Main Results:

    • The majority of patients were aged 31-40 years.
    • Seven patients experienced postoperative complications, primarily scrotal hematoma.
    • One case of recanalisation occurred, necessitating a repeat operation.

    Conclusions:

    • Correct vasectomy technique, including histological verification and postoperative sperm analysis, is essential.
    • Two negative sperm analyses, at least one month apart, are required to confirm sterility post-vasectomy.
