Male Reproductive Surgery

In addition to the male infertility treatment methods used for assisted reproductive technology, there are a several surgical infertility solutions available to treat specific anatomical problems:

Vasoepididymostomy

Vasoepididymostomy is a surgical procedure designed to treat an epididymal obstruction, such as scarring or cysts, which can block the sperm from traveling into the vas deferens.

This male infertility treatment is a difficult microsurgical procedure, requiring a skillful and experienced surgeon.

Varicocelectomy

Varicocelectomy is the most common procedure performed for male infertility. This treatment is essentially a surgical procedure to repair varicoceles (varicose veins of the testicles). The additional blood from varicoceles can raise the temperature of the testes and impair sperm production, causing low sperm count. Treatment to repair this condition requires that veins are cut to eliminate blood flow to the varicocele, improving fertility and increasing the chances of conception.
