If a vasectomy reversal fails, should I consider a repeat reversal?

The success rates for repeat reversals are generally 8 percent to 10 percent lower than for first reversals. In making a recommendation, your urologist will review the record of your previous procedure.
If sperm were present in fluid obtained from the lower end of the vas during that operation, he or she will probably perform a repeat vasovasostomy, a less complicated procedure than a vasoepididymostomy, but more likely to produce success.
