Conclusıon: Microscopic subinguinal varicocelectomy, which is related to the highest success rates and lowest recurrence and complication rates in the treatment of varicocele, may be safely used in the treatment of recurrent varicocele as well
It has been reported in many studies that the recurrence rate of microscopic varicocelectomy performed within the same surgical region is significantly lower compared to the conventional methods [15]
Summary
The data of 20 patients undergoing left subinguinal microscopic varicocelectomy in our clinics due to left varicocele for the first time and 20 patients undertaken the same operation for the second time due to recurrence between April 2015 and May 2017, were retrospectively evaluated. Semen analysis parameters, testicular volumes and complication rates were compared between the groups both prior to and 12 months after the operation.
