A low-power magnification technique for the re-anastomosis of the vas--further results in a personal series of 125 patients.

In 125 patients undergoing reversal of an earlier bilateral vasectomy, a simple technique of re-anastomosis of each divided vas, using low-power magnification (X 3.5) was used. In 51% of couples a normal pregnancy followed and 86% of the males had a sperm count greater than 20 million ml-1. These results compare quite favourably with those obtained using more sophisticated microsurgical techniques.
