Semen sampling as a simple, noninvasive surrogate for prostate health screening.

The detection rates for prostate cancer (pCa) by invasive biopsy are high, fully justifying its use in confirmatory testing. False-positive results of prior, relatively insensitive screening tests, however, can lead to expensive and often unnecessary surgery. Several reports have suggested the potential use of the ejaculate to screen for prostate conditions.

Objective: Vasectomy, though in some cases are being confronted with irreversibility, has been accepted as an effective contraceptive method. It is estimated that near 2-6% of vasectomised men ultimately show a tendency to restore their fertility. In some cases, vasectomy has been considered as an irreversible procedure due to many post-vasectomy complications causing this debate.

Introduction: Recent research on vasectomy shows that combining cautery and fascial interposition (FI) achieves the most effective occlusion of the vas and minimizes the risk of failure. We present a technique that combines cautery and FI and is suitable for low-resource settings.
Surgical Technique: The surgical technique consists of 1) exposing the vas with the no-scalpel approach; 2) cauterizing the epithelium of lumen of the vas using a portable battery-powered cautery device; 3) performing FI by grasping internal spermatic fascia and applying a free tie with suture material on the fascia to cover the prostatic stump of the vas and separate the two ends of the cut vas; and 4) excising a small 0.

Skin necrosis due to excessive ice pack application following vasectomy has not been previously reported. We report a rare case of postvasectomy skin necrosis resulting from extreme ice pack usage. This complication illustrates the importance of clear communication of postvasectomy instructions to patients.
