Dr Karpman - Vasectomy reversals at El Camino Urology Medical Group, Inc California
Location El Camino Urology Medical Group, Inc Melchor Pavilion 2490 Hospital Dr Suite 210 Mountain View, CA 94040 Office Hours by Appointment 9 am - 5 pm Monday - Friday Contact Tel (650) 962-4662 Fax (650) 962-4652 Dr Karpman Direct Line (650) 962-4663 Surgery Scheduling (650) 962-4668 Dr Karpman is a board certified urologist and one of the few urologists in the San Francisco Bay Area and Northern California who is fellowship trained to perform vasectomy reversal. Only 1-2% of urologists nationwide hold this distinction in training. Dr Karpman has experience and success in reversing vasectomies for couples who have even had previous failed vasectomy reversals (re-do vasectomy reversal) performed by other surgeons. His advanced microsurgical training and experience allow him to perform either vasovasostomy or epididymovasostomy. This determination can only be made at the time of surgery after thorough evaluation of the fluid for sperm under a microscope from the cut end of the vas deferens so that Dr Karpman's advanced skills offer the greatest chance of success. Dr Karpman performs all of his vasectomy reversals under a powerful operating microscope. This allows him to precisely visualize the entire procedure under magnification 25 times the normal image. while some surgeons prefer to use only loupe magnification (2.5 times). Operating under powerful microscope significantly increases success rates in terms of return of sperm to the ejaculate and more importantly, pregnancy rates Another factor that increases the procedure success is suture used for vasectomy reversal that is thinner than a human hair. Taking into consideration that the vas deferens is approximately the diameter of a piece of spaghetti and must be sewn back together in two layers, fine suture is very important important. Dr Karpman's technique of vasectomy reversal has been published in both national and international journals. At the time of surgery, Dr Karpman offers all his patients the option of freezing sperm (cryopreservation). The freezing of sperm gives the patient the more security of knowing that the surgery will be successful. Additional services such as male infertility evaluation are also provided if the need arises.
