Reviews

“This book represents a distinguished addition to previously published work on vaso-vasostomy and vasoepididymostomy. It provides a highly detailed reference for intraoperative management of unanticipated barriers with the ultimate goal of operative success.” (Irvin H Hirsch, Doody's Book Reviews, April, 2019)
