Varicocele Microsurgery

In varicocele microsurgery, we ligate the dilated veins one by one under an operating microscope while preserving the artery and lymphatics.

HIGHLIGHTS

What stands out in this treatment

Microsurgical Precision

Each dilated vein is identified and ligated individually under an operating microscope with high magnification, preserving the artery and lymphatics.

Low Recurrence Rate

Microscopic vision allows even small-caliber veins to be seen and ligated; a low recurrence rate with the microsurgical approach (qualitative).

Artery & Lymphatic Sparing

Preservation of the testicular artery and lymphatics; support for testicular function and sperm production, with reduced risk of hydrocele.

Andrology & Infertility Expertise

A team experienced in male infertility, sperm parameters and sexual health, with multidisciplinary assessment.

Rapid Recovery (Day Surgery)

Thanks to the small subinguinal incision, usually a day-case procedure, little pain and a fast return to daily life.

International Patient Support

End-to-end international patient services including visa, transfer, accommodation and medical interpreter.

Insurance & agreements

Transparent payment with contracted institutions and private insurers, at home and abroad.

Accommodation & rooms

Companion-friendly modern patient rooms and in-city accommodation support.

International patient services

Visa, airport transfer and 24/7 multilingual medical interpreters.
