Primary outcomePrimary: Recurrent Varicocele — 2; 16 participants
Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine the rates of major post-varicocelectomy complications (Recurrence, Hydrocele and Testicular Atrophy) in patients operated with a new method named Combined Mini-incision Microscopic Varicocelectomy. The study hypothesis is that using this method will lead to less major complications of recurrence, hydrocele, and also less incidental injuries to the arteries that will result less testicular atrophy

Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria
- Complexity and tortuosity of the veins at inguinal level so that separating and ligation of the vein could lead to artery injury
- Veins which are contiguous with arteries so that separating and ligation of the vein could lead to artery injury
Exclusion Criteria
- Prior surgery at inguinal level such as Herniorrhaphy, Orchiopexy,etc.
