- Vasectomy1. Procedure: Vasectomy is a surgical procedure which removes a part of the vas deferens, the tube-channel that carries the sperm from the testicle to the prostate area. Each end of the bas deferens is tied with non-absorbable suture. For practical purposes it must be considered a permanent procedure, although on rare occasions a reconnection has been accomplished surgically. Bleeding and infection are always a possibility after any surgical procedure. These complications are infrequent. Xylocaine, a local anesthetic, is injected into the area of the surgery. There will be discomfort in the groin for about 7 to 10 days following surgery. It is suggested that the day following surgery be taken off from work.
