Abstract
— This paper reports the result of our experience on laparoscopic varicocele treatment. Fifty-two patients underwent ligation of the spermatic vein. In 34 patients the procedure was monolateral and in 18 bilateral. Disposable trocars were used for umbilical access; non-disposable trocars were used for the others. Operative time was comparable to that of traditional surgery. Short hospitalization (24–48 hours) and the rapid resumption of everyday activity give the laparoscopic approach a favourable cost/benefit ratio in comparison with standard open techniques.
