Is vasectomy a minor operation?

Vasodilation is a relatively minor procedure.

Generally, vasodilation can be performed with local or general anesthesia and usually takes a short time, about 30 minutes to an hour. Vasodilation is usually performed at the scrotal site by cutting and separating the vas deferens and then restoring them to their normal position. Microscopes or other advanced equipment may be used during the procedure to improve accuracy and success. If vasectomy is being considered, consult a professional doctor for more information about the procedure and its risks.
