This diagnosis is characterized by pathological dilatation of the veins of the spermatic cord and testicles, which can subsequently cause inflammation and infertility. Abnormal vein widths create pressure on the testicles, thereby increasing the temperature in the genital area, which negatively affects the formation of full-fledged sperm.

Stages and symptoms
Signs and symptoms of varicocele directly depend on the stage of the disease. They are usually grouped into 4 types of disease severity:
-
First degree – pathology is determined only during an in-person examination by a specialist. There is no mourning for the state of health and modification of the genital organs.
-
The second is that a man himself can identify and visually see the problem with dilated veins on the testicle in a standing position. Any physical activity and activity causes discomfort due to increased blood circulation. There may be nagging pain in the groin.
-
The third is deformation of the scrotum, sagging tissue, noticeable grape-shaped plexuses of veins that hang over the testicle.
-
The fourth is periodic pain that develops into constant pain and has aching discomfort. The size of the scrotum increases significantly, and the testicle becomes increasingly difficult to identify.
The first stage has no indications for surgical intervention, unlike the next three. But special attention and periodic monitoring of the situation by the attending physician is required.
Surgical treatment
Only surgical intervention can fully cure varicocele and remove all visible symptoms and discomfort. Your specialist selects the most comfortable and affordable method of surgical intervention to forget about the problem once and for all:
-
Marmara operation or microsurgical therapy. One of the safest methods with infrainguinal access and the use of local anesthesia. The incision is no more than 3 cm, and there are practically no scars after the operation.
-
The Ivanissevich operation is a resection of a section of a vein followed by its ligation to prevent the reverse natural movement of venous blood in the testicles.
Any type of surgical intervention has its success in each individual case, which is confirmed by reviews of thousands of healthy patients in practice.
There is no way to prevent the appearance of varicocele, which is why it is important to worry about your health and contact the right specialist in time! On time and regularly!
