Abstract
The immunological consequences of vasectomy are manifested via the development of humoral and cell-mediated responses. In the present overview the immunological sequelae of those responses in man ranging from their methods of detection, of antigen and antibody, principally at the humoral level; local effects on the reproductive tract; circulating immune complexes and the critical area of reanastomosis are considered.
