The results of the treatment of 251 patients with varicocele are demonstrated. By means of spermiographic and histologic investigations the fertility-disturbing influence of this vascular disease of the testis shall be proved and the effect of the operative sanation shall be estimated. For many years the high ligature of the testicular vein has been favoured method of operation; since 1984 exclusively the percutaneous transfemoral occlusion of the testicular vein has been performed, when a left-sided varicocele is present. In 61% of the patients examined an improvement of the spermiogram is to be proved, in which case the most conspicuous rate of increase lies at the motility of spermatozoa with 58%. After removal if the varicocele the investigations of the testicular tissue reveal in 42% of the cases an improvement of the findings by decrease of the tubular atrophy and increase of the tubular cell number. Among the number of our patients the rate of conception is 49%. The treatment of varicocele is a fertility-protective measure and therefore should be performed in all adolescents and males at fertile age.
