ABSTRACT
Objective To study the effectiveness of laparoscopic treatment for varicocele. Methods Clinical records of 235 cases of laparoscopic high ligation of the spermatic vein between September 1993 and July 2003 were retrospectively analyzed. Results All the operations were completed successfully. The operation time was 5~20 min (mean, 12 min). The postoperative hospital stay was 2~5 days (mean, 3 days). Follow-up observations for 6~18 months in 210 cases found 9 cases of recurrence, with a recurrence rate of 4 3% (9/210). Eleven patients with sterility had their wives pregnant 6~12 months after the surgery. Conclusions Laparoscopic high ligation for varicocele offers minimal invasion, good cosmetic results, and satisfactory effects, especially suitable for patients with bilateral varicocele, recurrent varicocele after open surgery, and surgical history in the groin.
