It is very important to take a good surgical history in patients undergoing future surgery. Because protamine is used frequently to reverse heparin used in surgery, what specific surgical history should be considered beforehand?
Hx of vasectomy:
Data suggest that vasectomized men may be at increased risk for protamine-induced immunologic reactions. The majority of vasectomized men develop antibodies against different sperm antigens, including protamine. Due to the fact that salmon protamine is used clinically for heparin reversal and that a cross-reactivity has been observed between human and salmon protamine, vasectomized men may be at risk for adverse reactions to protamine sulfate. Vasectomy disrupts the normal blood-testes barrier allowing systemic absorption of sperm and the potential for antibody formation.
