title: [The characteristics of the histocompatibility antigen associations in patients with sterility due to varicocele].
abstract: Associations between sterility in varicocele and HLA antigens have been studied. The results show increased incidence of antigens B13 and B22 in sterile males with varicocele. Specific distribution of HLA antigens, their relations with varicocele were characterized. The findings can be of use in identification of risk groups among varicocele patients.
