Non-operative treatment of varicocele
Abstract
Thirty-eight patients with 40 varicoceles underwent spermatic venography and 27 varicoceles were treated by transvenous embolization under local anaesthesia as an outpatient procedure. The indications for the procedure were infertility (21), swelling (3), pain and discomfort (9) and asymptomatic varicoceles (5).
