ABSTRACT
Percutaneous embolization of the internal spermatic vein under the phlebography is a new alternative method in the treatment of idiopathic varicocele. Embolization with the stainless steel coil was attempted in 4 cases of varicocele which showed passive reflux from the left renal vein to the internal spermatic vein on the phlebography. 3 cases were corrected by the percutaneous embolization successfully and no dislocation of the coil was observed on the follow-up films. In failure case, the renal catheter could not be engaged into the internal spermatic vein.
