Abstract

The scrotal varicocele is a common finding encountered during clinical examination. A porto-systemic shunt presenting with an associated varicocele is exceptionally rarely reported. Herein, we report such a case in an HIV positive man who presented with bilateral varicoceles. This is only the fifth case of such an association in the world literature. A literature review and the possible underlying pathophysiological mechanisms of this rare association are expanded further.
