Abstract
Transfemoral phlebography with renal and testicular vein catheterization is now widely recommended to elucidate the causes of varicocele, especially in recurrent disease. However, this method is available only in medical institutions with vasographic rooms, and varicocele cannot be classified as a rare disease because it is diagnosed in 8-20% of young men and in 8.4% of 10-15 year old boys. The association of fertility with varicose veins of the spermatic cord makes varicocele a social problem.
