No-Scalpel Vasectomy with Spermatic Cord Block in Miami
In recent years, advancements in medical technology have led to the development of a less invasive technique known as the “no scalpel vasectomy.” At the Perito Clinic we utilize this innovative approach along with our own proprietary “Spermatic Cord Block” which offers several advantages over the conventional vasectomy method.
NO-SCALPEL VASECTOMIES
The no scalpel vasectomy technique involves using specialized instruments to access the vas deferens through a small puncture or hole in the scrotum. Dr. Perito gently spreads the tissue apart, avoiding the need for an incision. This approach minimizes bleeding, reduces the risk of infection, and speeds up the recovery process compared to a conventional vasectomy.
SPERMATIC CORD BLOCK
The spermatic cord block is a useful maneuver when performing procedures on the scrotal contents to minimize pain. It is also useful for patients complaining of testicular/epididymal pain prior to any more invasive procedures.
HOW IT WORKS
The spermatic cord is a bundle of vessels, nerves and ducts that run to and from the testes. They are contained in a thin sheath of connective tissue that looks like cord.
The nerves that run through the cord carry pain signals to the testicles. A spermatic cord block stops the transmission.
A spermatic cord block is generally performed to allow for the patient to maintain reduced pain levels, during and after the procedure.
BENEFITS FROM A SPERMATIC CORD BLOCK
- Men should feel relief for up to 8+ hours following the vasectomy.
- At times the relief is permanent. There are no known side effects, except for occasional minor bruising at the injection site.
- Some men who have the block notice a difference in their pain level once the procedure’s anesthetic effect wears off.
BENEFITS OF THE NO-SCALPEL VASECTOMY
Less Discomfort: The absence of needle injections and the use of a smaller puncture reduce the discomfort experienced during the procedure. This makes the no-scalpel vasectomy a more comfortable option for many men.
Faster Recovery: The no-scalpel technique results in less trauma to the tissues, allowing for a quicker recovery. The smaller puncture site typically heals on its own within a few days, leading to less post-operative pain and a faster return to normal activities.
Reduced Risk of Complications: The precise and controlled method used in the no-scalpel vasectomy reduces the risk of complications such as bleeding, infection, and sperm granuloma formation. This makes it a safe and reliable choice for men considering permanent contraception.
Shorter Procedure Time: The no-needle, no-scalpel vasectomy is known for its efficiency. The procedure can typically be completed in less time compared to a conventional vasectomy. On average, it takes about 20 minutes, making it a convenient option for busy individuals.
High Success Rate: The no-scalpel vasectomy is as effective as the conventional method in preventing pregnancy. Once you have undergone the procedure, it is essential to complete a semen analysis to confirm the absence of sperm before relying on the vasectomy as a sole form of birth control.
The no scalpel vasectomy with Spermatic Cord Block technique provides men with a less invasive alternative to the conventional approach. It offers increased comfort, reduced pain, faster recovery, reduced risk of complications, and a high success rate in preventing pregnancy.
