The most common complications of vasectomy are ecchymosis and sperm granuloma. A sperm granuloma may increase the chance of spontaneous recanalization. Orchitis and epididymitis generally respond best to treatment with anti-inflammatory drugs and antibiotics. Although antibodies frequently develop against different portions of the sperm, long-term studies have not shown any adverse effects of these antibodies.
