Post-vasectomy pain syndrome

Post-vasectomy pain syndrome (PVPS) is a chronic and sometimes debilitating genital pain condition that may develop immediately or several years after vasectomy.[1][2][3] Because this condition is a syndrome, there is no single treatment method, therefore efforts focus on mitigating/relieving the individual patient's specific pain.[1][2][4][5] When pain in the epididymides is the primary symptom, post-vasectomy pain syndrome is often described as congestive epididymitis.
