[The results of percutaneous transvascular sclerotherapy of varicoceles].
The indications, techniques, complications and results of percutaneous sclerotherapy or embolization of gonadal veins for varicocele are discussed. Of our 93 patients, sclerotherapy of varicocele was technically possible in 81 cases. Sclerotherapy or embolization can be effected by different materials, such as: Histoacryl and Lipidiol mixed 1:2 to 1:4 and Aethoxysklerol, applied by a coaxial catheter system or end-opened F 6-catheter. Today the percutaneous transluminal sclerotherapy of gonadal veins is the treatment of choice for varicocele.
