Hi Peter,
I haven't had it done but we did discuss it a few years back. At the time there was info in the media about two ways of doing it.
One is where both ends of the cut tube are tied off, this was the old way and could cause pain in goolies as the sperm backed up.
The other was to tie off/cauterise the end leading into the body and let the other end leak the sperm into the scrotum. This is then reabsorbed into the area and was regarded as the best by the interviewed expert.
Both methods were being used by various doctors. I do not know what the current thinking is but it may pay to ask.
