What is Varicocele?

Varicocele is a condition in which the veins inside the scrotum become enlarged, leading to a decreased blood flow, and thereby causing infertility. If left untreated, varicocele can result in ongoing discomfort and potential complications.

Identify the Signs of Varicocele

Enlarged veins in the scrotum

A lump or bulge in the scrotum

Dull or sharp pain in the scrotum

A feeling of heaviness or dragging in the scrotum

Understand the Causes of Varicoceles

A varicocele is an enlargement of veins inside the scrotum. The exact cause of varicoceles is not fully understood, but it is believed to occur when the valves inside the spermatic veins are not functioning properly. This can lead to a backup of blood in the veins, causing them to become enlarged and resulting in varicocele. Other potential causes of varicoceles include:

Genetics

Anatomical abnormalities

Different Types Of Varicoceles

A grade 1 varicocele is the mildest form of varicocele and is often not visible or palpable.It is detected only through imaging studies, such as ultrasound.While grade 1 varicocele may not require treatment, it is important to monitor the condition as it can progress over time.If it begins to cause pain or affect fertility, treatment options can be discussed with a healthcare provider.

A grade 2 varicocele is a type of varicocele that is more noticeable and can be felt during a physical exam.The veins in the scrotum are larger and more twisted than in grade 1 varicocele, and may cause some discomfort or pain.While it may not always require treatment, it can affect fertility in some cases.

A grade 3 varicocele is the most severe type of varicocele, characterised by large, twisted veins that are easily visible and palpable.It can cause significant pain and discomfort, and affect fertility.The treatment options may include surgical procedures or minimally invasive techniques like embolization to redirect blood flow away from the affected veins.

Our Experts Explain

How Can Varicocele Be Prevented?

Unfortunately, there is no known way to prevent varicoceles. This is because varicoceles usually develop due to a combination of factors, such as genetics and lifestyle habits, which may be beyond our control. However, there are some steps that can be taken to reduce the risk of developing a varicocele or minimize the symptoms, including: Wearing supportive underwear, such as briefs or compression shorts, to provide extra support to the scrotum and improve blood flow. Avoiding activities or positions that put pressure on the scrotum such as sitting for long periods, heavy lifting, or cycling. Maintaining a healthy weight and exercising regularly to improve overall blood circulation. Treating underlying medical conditions that can contribute to the development of varicoceles, such as high blood pressure or a kidney tumour.

Types of Varicocele Surgery

Recommendations after Varicocele Surgery

Varicocele is a medical condition that occurs when the veins in the scrotum become enlarged and twisted. Surgery is often recommended by a doctor to treat varicocele, and there are several types of surgery available.

Varicocelectomy:

This is the most common type of surgery recommended by doctors for varicocele. It is an outpatient procedure that involves making a small incision in the groin or abdomen to access and remove the affected veins.

Laparoscopic varicocelectomy:

This is a minimally invasive surgery in which the doctor uses a laparoscope, a thin tube with a camera and surgical instruments, to access and tie up the affected veins. This procedure requires general anaesthesia and has a shorter recovery time than open surgery.

Percutaneous embolization:

This is a minimally invasive procedure that involves the insertion of a catheter through a vein in the groin or neck and into the affected vein. A small coil or other material is then used by the doctor to block the vein, redirecting blood flow to healthy veins.

Microsurgical subinguinal varicocelectomy:

This is a highly precise surgery that uses a microscope and microsurgical instruments to remove the affected veins. A doctor recommends this in cases where other types of surgery have failed, and it has a high success rate with minimal risk of complications.

Laparoscopic varicocelectomy:

Percutaneous embolization:

Microsurgical subinguinal varicocelectomy:

Following a varicocele surgery, patients should adhere to several key steps given by the doctor to promote proper healing and avoid complications. This includes getting ample rest, avoiding strenuous physical activity, maintaining dryness around the surgical site, wearing supportive undergarments, and taking any medication that your doctor prescribed. Regular follow-up appointments with Mykare Health will help to monitor the recovery process and address any concerns. Asking questions and adhering to medical instructions is critical to a successful recovery. With proper care, most patients can expect a full recovery within several weeks of surgery.

I have some multiple anterior lipomas all over my body. I searched a good doctor for the excision of this lumps. Last month I saw an add of my care health in Facebook. I contacted my care health. Greeshma the excecutive contacted me and suggested Dr Shammi to consult. After that I went to his SS polyclinic and explained my problems to Dr Shammi. After that Shri Mohammed excecutive of my care health contacted me over telephone and arranged all the procedures to conduct surgery for the excision of lipomas in India hospital trust. I admitted in hospital on 13/04/2023 evening. All the investigations conducted very well and fast. Next day early morning the surgery conducted. Dr Shammi and the team from India hospital has done the surgery. Hats off to Dr Shammi and India hospital trust they have done a very good job. I thanks to Shri Mohammed for coordinating all the procedures from the time off admission upto the discharge. And also coordinating the insurance claim from oriental insurance. All these things are done very good and smooth. With my experience I will suggest and recommend my friends and relatives about my care health. Once again I thanks Dr Shammi, Smt greeshma, India hospital teams and especially Shri Mohammed of my care health. Thanks. Biju Raghavan
