Is vas deferens unblocking surgery painful?

Ejaculatory duct recanalization refers to the surgical treatment of ejaculatory duct recanalization performed by men who want to restore their fertility after vasectomy. There are two types of surgical treatment methods for ejaculatory duct recanalization: basic ejaculatory duct recanalization and microscopic ejaculatory duct recanalization. So is ejaculatory duct drainage surgery painful?

Is ejaculatory duct drainage surgery painful?

Ejaculatory duct drainage surgery is a type of microsurgery, which generally requires surgery under general anesthesia. Therefore, the surgical treatment is not painful, and you will not feel obvious wound pain, vaginal pain, etc. after the surgical treatment.

Generally, this type of surgery does not cause serious trauma, and the recovery from the surgery is relatively fast. What you need to pay attention to after the surgical treatment is to take more rest and avoid sexual intercourse within the past month.

In addition, pay attention to the infection of the wound. If the wound is red, swollen and painful, seek medical treatment immediately.

The course of post-operative antibiotic treatment should be sufficient, at least 3 to 5 days.

What is the success rate of surgical treatment for vas deferens obstruction?

The success rate of ejaculatory duct blockage first depends on where the ejaculatory duct is blocked, and also depends on the cause of the blockage. Ejaculatory duct blockage is partly caused by iatrogenic factors, such as adhesions caused by hernia surgery, or even ejaculatory duct blockage caused by intraoperative damage. Some people also have male vasectomy, which causes the ejaculatory duct to be blocked. In addition, the vast majority of causes may be blockage of the ejaculatory ducts caused by inflammation. Ejaculatory duct blockage also depends on where it is located. The length of the ejaculatory duct is about 20-30cm. Different locations where the ejaculatory duct is blocked require different surgical treatment methods.

Blockages caused by inflammation usually occur at the tail end of epididymal cysts, causing blockage at the junction of the epididymal duct and the ejaculatory duct. Go to the hospital for microscopic surgery, and the success rate should be around 70%. Therefore, it is necessary to determine what the cause is and where the blockage is, and then take effective treatment. The success rates of various situations are different.
