Vasectomy acceptance has been declining in India during the past 20 years. Even if the risk of prostate cancer is marginally higher in vasectomized men, this risk in India has to be assessed against the immediate safety and other possible long-term benefits of this procedure. The Indian Council of Medical Research has launched a case-control study, which is unlikely to be time-consuming or beyond the available means and resources, in order to obtain definitive data on this problem. Meanwhile, vasectomy remains an excellent procedure for the couple seeking permanent methods of contraception, and specific efforts to promote its acceptance must continue in India.
在过去20年里，印度输精管切除术的接受率一直在下降。即使输精管切除的男性患前列腺癌的风险略高，但在印度，这种风险必须与该手术的即时安全性及其他可能的长期益处相权衡。印度医学研究理事会已开展了一项病例对照研究，该研究不太可能耗时过长或超出可用的手段和资源范围，以便获取有关这一问题的确切数据。与此同时，对于寻求永久性避孕方法的夫妇而言，输精管切除术仍是一种极佳的手术方式，在印度必须继续做出具体努力来提高其接受率。
