Abstract
Between March 1990 and November 1992, 22 adolescents with varicocele, 13 unilateral left and 4 bilateral, are presented. They were all treated with microsurgical techniques by shunting the venous drainage by means of a spermatic inferior epigastric end-to-side anastomosis. The results achieved have been optimum with the clinical disappearance of varicose veins in 100% of the cases and the elimination of the spontaneous reflux of the interna spermatic vein in 100% of the patients shown by echodoppler. This technique enables the establishment of an immediate and physiological testicular venous drainage fundamental for testicular growth and development.
