Two pregnancies were obtained postoperatively. The following factors have been shown to be associated with a favourable result: a vasal obstruction in the subcutaneous inguinal ring, a dilatation of the proximal vas deferens, and the presence of sperm in the intravasal fluid that accumulates proximal to the obstructive site of the vas deferens. In the two successful cases, the time intervals after herniorrhaphy were 16 years and 20 years, respectively, which were considered to be long delays between vas occlusion and its reanastomosis.}, pages = {53--59}, title = {Vasovasostomy for Obstructive Azoospermia due to Herniorrhaphy in Childhood}, volume = {49}, year = {1987} }
