Vasectomy

Introduction: On June 24, 2022, the US Supreme Court issued its decision on Dobbs v Jackson Women's Health Organization (Dobbs). This decision had major implications on female reproductive choices, but also had potential implications on their male counterparts. We sought to determine the association of Dobbs with the number and characteristics of men seeking vasectomy.

The vesicostomy button has been shown to be a safe and effective bladder management strategy for short- or medium-term use when CIC cannot be instituted. This study reports our use with the vesicostomy button, highlighting the pros and cons of its use and complications.

The results of published literature focusing on the association between vasectomy and the incidence of prostate cancer are often inconsistent.

Staphylococcus lugdunensis is a coagulase-negative Staphylococcus (CoNS), and part of the normal skin flora.

PURPOSE: Teaching the no-scalpel vasectomy is important, since vasectomy is a safe, simple, and cost-effective method of contraception.

In the USA, about 500,000 vasectomies are performed each year, with up to 6 % of men requesting reversal.

Some studies have suggested that vasectomy is associated with the increased risk of prostate cancer, however, this conclusion is not supported by all the published studies.

We evaluated pre-operative and intraoperative factors associated with successful patency following bilateral microsurgical vasovasostomy (VV).

OBJECTIVE: To perform a systematic review and meta-analysis of the published literature evaluating vasovasostomy for vasectomy reversal outcomes.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the association between the presence of sperm in the vasal fluid during vasectomy reversal (VR) and postoperative patency.
