Of 33 patients operated in the last decade, 32 could be reached for follow-up. The patency-rate was 86% and the pregnancy-rate 28%. Possible explanations for this discrepancy are discussed. The time lag between vasectomy and vasovasostomy was the most important prognostic factor. There was no difference in the results between one-layer and two-layer anastomosis. With an interdisciplinary approach the same patency rate as described in the literature was achieved.Read More
