  • Title: Incidence of sperm antibodies before and after vasectomy.
    Author: Hunter J, Logan H, Greer G.
    Journal: J Clin Pathol; 1976 Dec; 29(12):1127-9. PubMed ID: 1010880.
    Abstract:
    Sperm-agglutinating antibodies were present in three (2-6%) of 117 fertile men and in 19 (33-9%) of 56 men who had been vasectomized. Twenty-four of the 56 vasectomized men had been studied before vasectomy; sperm-agglutinating antibodies were present in one (4-3%) compared with eight (33-3%) after vasectomy. No sperm-immobilizing antibodies were detected before vasectomy but were present in 10 (17-9%) of the 56 men after vasectomy.
