Vasectomy: First attempt at reversal In 1886 Bardenheurer was experimenting with methods of restoring continuity between the vas deferens and the epididymus in cases of blockage through disease or injury. The first description of a feasible operation is credited to Martin in an article in the "University of Pennsylvania Medical Bulletin" in 1902. Two Italians, Penzo and Gutti, wrote on the subject in 1903 and 1905, while Swinbourne, an American claimed success in 1910 in one of five cases, using Martin's technique. The first British report is a note by Wheeler, of Dublin, in 1914. The first repair carried out for the reversal of vasectomy, rather than in a case of accidental blockage, was performed in 1919 by W. C. Quinby, the patient having undergone a voluntary vasectomy in 1911. From The Illustrated Book of Sexual Records. © 1974, 1982, 1997-2001 G.L.
