WHAT IS VARICOCELE EMBOLISATION?

What is Varicocele Embolisation?

A varicocele is an abnormal enlargement of the veins within the scrotum — similar to varicose veins in the legs, but occurring in the testicular venous system.

Varicoceles are present in approximately 15% of all men and in up to 40% of men presenting with male factor infertility.

Traditional treatment has been varicocelectomy — a surgical procedure requiring a scrotal or inguinal incision under general or spinal anaesthesia.

Varicocele Embolisation is the modern, minimally invasive alternative performed through a tiny puncture at the neck or groin — without surgery, without a scrotal cut, and without general anaesthesia.

Varicocele Can Cause

✔ Dull aching scrotal pain

✔ Testicular heaviness or discomfort

✔ Enlarged visible scrotal veins

✔ Reduced sperm quality

✔ Male infertility

✔ Testicular atrophy

HOW IT WORKS

How the Procedure is Performed

Doppler Ultrasound

A colour Doppler ultrasound confirms the varicocele grade and evaluates spermatic vein reflux.

Neck or Groin Access

A tiny puncture is made under local anaesthesia. No cut on the scrotum.

Venogram Mapping

X-ray dye study maps the spermatic vein and identifies reflux channels.

Embolisation

Coils or foam are used to seal the abnormal vein and stop reflux.

Recovery

Most patients return home within hours and resume activity within days.
