When veins in the Scrotum become enlarged it causes blood to pool and affects overall blood flow which leads to testicular pain, decreased testosterone production and negatively influences the reproductive system in men.
The exact cause of Varicocele in not quite certain, but usually occurs when the valves in the spermatic cord prevents blood from flowing properly causing blood to pool and blood vessels to enlarge. Varicocele can also affect the sperm count and quality of sperm produced.
Varicocele Management depends on the severity of the condition and can be diagnosed during a physical exam or a scrotal ultrasound from a healthcare provider. Traditional Varicocele Treatment involves performing an open surgery called Varicocelectomy Surgery were the surgeon closes the affected veins in the scrotum to reroute blood via healthier veins.
This Varicocele Surgery involves a lot of risks since it is performed in a highly sensitive area such as the Scrotum. Several factors can contribute to complications including bruising, swelling or even injury to the testicular artery.
Varicoceles affect approximately 15% of the male population. If left untreated for a long period of time it can lead to testicular atrophy, which means shrinkage in your testicle size. A Varicocele is quite challenging to identify and can be prevalent in a completely asymptomatic man too.

Since the procedure is minimally invasive in nature, it provides a faster recovery phase to patients. Other benefits of Varicocele Embolization include,
Varicocele is basically enlargement of the veins in the Scrotum, a bag that holds a man’s testicles. When the veins become enlarged, the blood flow gets obstructed, reducing the flow of healthy blood to the testicles. This may cause severe complications which may even include infertility in men. Varicocele Surgery are of different types such as Varicocelectomy, Laparoscopic Varicocelectomy and Laparoscopic Varicocele Ligation.
Open surgeries to treat Varicocele prove to provide relief from its symptoms but also involve their own set of risks and complications. These complications might be quite severe and may also include blood loss, infection and damage to surrounding organs. Interventional Radiology technique such as Varicocele Embolization is a non-surgical procedure which does not involve making large incisions thereby minimalizing risks and complications involved.
