How common is varicocele and will I require surgery?
Varicocele is a condition where the veins responsible for delivering blood from the male testicles to the main systemic veins, develop faulty valves. This consequently leads to pooling of blood within the veins surrounding the testicles and eventually their engorgement and dilatation. We asked interventional radiologist Dr Sami Abdelghaffar to answer some questions about varicocele.
