A feasible ambulatory mini-incision microsurgical vasovasostomy under local anaesthesia using a specially designed double-ringed clamp that simplifies surgery.
TLDR
Ambulatory mini-incision microsurgical vasectomy reversal using Moon's clamp and under local anaesthesia is a surgically feasible option that offers the advantages of a low-risk operation and allows patients to return to their daily activities quickly with minimal complications.Abstract:
INTRODUCTION
In line with the effort to evaluate feasible surgical options for vasectomy reversal and to increase patients’ willingness to undergo the procedure, this study reported on a technique for ambulatory mini-incision microsurgical vasovasostomy using a double-ringed clamp (i.e. Moon’s clamp). This technique does not require the use of dilators, approximators and other accessory devices.read more

The No-Scalpel Vasectomy
TL;DR: Physicians in China have developed a new technique to perform vasectomies which improves men's acceptance of vasectomy called no-scalpel vasectomy, and both the ring clamp and dissecting clamp were developed in China.
