Laparoscopic procedures have long been a standard form of treatment for gynaecological disorders but have only recently shown promise in the evaluation and treatment of urogenital diseases, such as pelvic lymphadenectomy. We performed laparoscopic ligation of the bilateral internal spermatic veins in 15 male pigs. The average operative time was 20 min and operative morbidity was minimal, comprising mild subcutaneous emphysema around the trocars. Engorgement of the spermatic vein proximal to the endoclip site was noted. There was no operative mortality. Laparoscopic ligation of the internal spermatic veins seems to be a feasible method for the treatment of varicoceles, especially bilateral lesions.
