Varicocele

Varicocele is known as a dilation of the papiryngeal plexus located inside the scrotum. This condition affects 10 to 25% of men and is chronic and progressive. The causes of this pathology are multiple; it can be due to a vascular anatomy that predisposes to this disease, increased pressure in the veins, increased blood flow during adolescence, or overexpression of specific proteins. This dilation can cause testicular alterations and sometimes low sperm production and quality.

Clinically it presents
