ABSTRACT
The varicocele is the most common and identifiable cause of subfertility in men. Its subclinical form is underestimated. Its impact on male fertility is not well known. Doppler sonography is a non invasive and reliable mean of diagnosis. It enabled us to detect subclinical varicocele in six subfertile men.
