[Recurrence rate after varicocelectomy in infertile men]. / Varikoselektomi geçirmis infertil erkeklerde rekürens sikligi.

PURPOSE: To detect the recurrence rate of varicocele in infertile men with varicocelectomy. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Twenty of 94 infertile patients with varicocelectomy were examined by color Doppler ultrasonography. RESULTS: We found 60% recurrence of varicocele infertile men with varicocelectomy. The mean time after varicocelectomy was five years for the patients with recurrence, and seven years for patients without recurrence. CONCLUSION: Doppler sonography is a useful imaging modality in the examination of post-varicocelectomy infertile men without successful impregnation.
