Over a 10-year period, routine vasectomies were reversed, and a very high rate of return of patency and potency was obtained in a series of 475 patients. The patients who presented for the reversal of vasectomy were, on average, about 33 years of age and had undergone vasectomy five years previously. An original, meticulous, microsurgical technique enabled the return of sperms to the ejaculate in over 90% of patients; the subsequent pregnancy rate in their spouses was over 82% in the first two years after the operation. The reversal of routine vasectomies which have been performed in the mid-scrotal area, at least 3 cm away from the epididymis, has the best chance of success; damage to the epididymis may preclude the reconstructive procedure.
在10年期间，对常规输精管切除术进行了逆转，在475例患者中获得了非常高的通畅率和恢复生育能力的比率。前来进行输精管复通术的患者平均年龄约33岁，输精管切除术是在5年前进行的。一种独创、精细的显微外科技术使超过90%的患者精液中重新出现精子；术后头两年其配偶的受孕率超过82%。在阴囊中部距附睾至少3厘米处进行的常规输精管切除术的逆转成功率最高；附睾受损可能使重建手术无法进行。
