ABSTRACT
Objective: To determine the complications of No scalpel vasectomy (NSV) in a family medicine clinic.
Material and Methods: Descriptive and longitudinal study and a randomized sample. We studied 50 patients with NSV surgery at a Family Medicine unit post-operatively from January 1, 2006 to December 31, 2007. We followed up post-operative patients post-operatively at 7 and 90 days; data collection was based on the patient’s history and the implementation of a survey of their partners.
Results: Patients had an average age of 32.9 years, and 2.7 children on average. Main clinical complications (at 7 days) were mild testicular pain (28%) and ecchymosis (4%). No correlation was established between VSB performed the family physician’s office and the presence of clinical complications. No correlation was established between NSV conducted by family physicians and the presence of post-vasectomy complications. After 90 days, 100% of cases reported azoospermia, but 30% mentioned the presence of complications in their relationship in the single or combined form of the following complications; decrease in duration of sexual intercourse; premature ejaculation, and decreased sexual desire.
Conclusions: VSB is a simple and practical method that can be carried out in the family physician’s office, with a low incidence of clinical complications. However, complications can arise in the relationship, which, if not detected early, can cause familial family.
