Varicocele is associated with impaired spermatogenesis due to altered testicular microenvironment. Increased venous pressure, hyperthermia, hypoxia, and oxidative stress collectively disrupt germ cell maturation.
Diagnosis is confirmed clinically and through Doppler ultrasonography. Microsurgical varicocelectomy remains the preferred treatment for symptomatic patients or those with abnormal semen parameters.
Postoperative improvement is often observed in sperm concentration and motility, particularly in younger erotic individuals.
