Abstract
Varicocele is defined as an enlarged overfilled pampiniform venous plexus due to venous reflux. It is a very frequent pathology, affecting about 14-20% of adolescents and young men.
Although many studies proved an existing link between varicocele and impaired fertility, only 20% of men with varicocele are subfertile. Selection of a patient who would benfit of a treatment and the best treatment option still remain matters of debate.
