[Influence of Palomo's varicocele operation on the spermiogram].
The anatomical condition and the pathomechanism of varicoceles are outlined. The results of the controls of 100 patients being operated by the technique according to Palomo are evaluated. A definite improvement is pointed out in the different parameters of the spermiogram. The differences are significant in follow-up periods up to two years. In the age group between 30-34 years the results are more satisfactory than at the age group 25-29 years and 35-39 years. Half a year after the operation the spermatozoal number generally resembles the norm (40 mill/ml). Catamnestic inquiries among ninetyfive cases showed that there were twentynine graviditis (= 30.5%), which led to a delivery at term in twentyfive cases (= 25.2%).
