Vasography, its Indications and Complications

Abstract
A retrospective study was undertaken of the results of vasography in 440 male partners of infertile marriages who had undergone scrotal exploration and in a group of 42 men with a variety of genital tract disorders. Abnormalities were observed in 10% of 265 azoospermic men and in 4% of 175 other men with infertility. There was no evidence that vasography caused damage to the vas deferens and no oligozoospermic man became azoospermic. A high incidence of radiological abnormalities was seen in hemospermia but the incidence of abnormalities in selected men with ejaculatory problems or testicular pain was low.
