For patients, the harm of infertility cannot be ignored. In many newlywed families, this disease often causes confusion for the couple, and its appearance has a great impact on people, and the harm is self-evident. Many people often resort to surgery to treat varicocele infertility, but they are unaware that there are many aspects to pay attention to in the surgical method.
How can surgical methods treat infertility caused by varicocele?
Experts in the treatment of varicocele infertility point out that in the surgery for treating varicocele infertility, the severity of the patient's condition should be checked. Generally, those within the mild category do not require treatment, and should be given more attention in daily life. However, moderate to severe cases must be highly valued, as it can seriously affect fertility.
Experts remind that surgical treatment for varicocele infertility is generally applicable to those with severe varicocele infertility, sperm count below 20 million three times in a row, or testicular atrophy.
As this disease is a developmental disease, everyone should promptly control its condition. Not all infertile patients with varicocele are suitable for surgery, and it depends on the condition. For the surgery of varicocele infertility, a catheter can be inserted into the left internal spermatic vein through the inferior vena cava and left renal vein, and then injected with 5% sodium cod liver oleate or gelatin sponge and steel ring to embolize this vein and treat varicocele infertility.
The disadvantage is that the veins have malformations and collateral circulation, which is not suitable for embolization and requires special equipment. You can also use the iliac fossa approach, make a left lower abdominal oblique incision, push open the peritoneum, and ligate the internal spermatic vein behind the peritoneum and in front of the external iliac artery. Its advantage is that if the internal spermatic vein is accidentally injured here, it will not cause testicular atrophy. The disadvantage is that transportation expenses cannot be handled simultaneously.
