Popis: |
The antegrade scrotal sclerotherapy is a minimally invasive surgical technique in the treatment of the varicocele. Through a small scrotal incision a straight vein merging in the spermatic vein is isolated and cannulated. An antegrade phlebography is performed and ethoxysclerol is injected in the vein. We have performed this technique in 35 patients with a follow-up of at least 3 months. All patients except one (97%) show no more varicocele. This technique has a low morbidity, is cheap and as effective as the other treatment modalities. The antegrade sclerotherapy is competitive to the retrograde embolisation and has the advantage that the treatment can be performed in all cases, even in cases of recidive. |
