In more than 6000 microsurgical varicocele surgeries I have performed in the last 20 years, the technical success rate is over 99%. The rate of serious complications is 0%, and the rate of minor complications such as simple wound infection is 1-2%. Sperm test values have increased in more than 90% of my patients, and many have achieved pregnancy.

Varicocele is a vascular disease caused by the enlargement of the veins around the testicle. It is usually seen in the left testicle and can be a cause of infertility in men.

Varicocele occurs due to the insufficiency of valves in the testicular veins, resulting in backflow of blood and enlargement of the vessels. It is more common in the left testicle due to anatomical reasons.

Varicocele can cause infertility, testicular shrinkage, pain, decreased testosterone, and stunted testicular growth during adolescence.

Varicocele diagnosis is made by manual examination from an experienced urologist. Ultrasound is only used as a supporting examination. Varicocele not detected by manual examination should not be surgically treated.

Microsurgery is the most successful method with the fewest complications in varicocele treatment. Microsurgical surgery performed by experienced hands has a high success rate and low complication rate.
