Service Name Microscopic Varicocelectomy

Description

A varicocelectomy procedure is the surgical removal of swollen veins in the scrotum called varicoceles. Varicoceles are more common on the left side, but they usually have no signs or symptoms. Occasionally a varicocele may cause pain (although it’s rare), which may:

  • Switch from sharp pain to a dull discomfort
  • Increase when you stand or physically exert yourself
  • Worsen over the course of a day
  • Get better when you lie down

There are no medications to treat varicoceles. In cases where varicoceles cause pain or infertility, surgery is required to remove them.

The procedure involves using a microscope to the surgically repair the enlarged veins through tiny incisions (one inch or less).

The Microsurgery Advantage: The blood vessels going to and from the testicles are very small. Using a microscope during varicocelectomy procedure helps the surgeon find the veins that need to be removed while preserving the tiny arteries that bring blood to the testicles.

Magnification also helps the surgeon identify and preserve the vessels that drain fluid around the testicles (called lymphocytes). This is important for preventing swelling due to fluid build-up (hydrocele) around the testicles after surgery.

Microsurgical varicocelectomy is usually done as an outpatient procedure, which means you go home the same day.
