Ninety-six males underwent vasovasostomy from 1976-1978. Seventy-six of 83 patients who returned for a semen analysis demonstrated sperm in the ejaculate for a 92% surgical patency rate. Thirty-two of 71 eligible patients initiated a pregnancy for a functional success rate of 45%. A statistically significant correlation was found between postoperative motility and pregnancy rate but none between sperm count and pregnancy rate.
