title: [Varicocele testis--a pediatric disease?].
abstract: The inquiries and evidences demonstrated deal with the consequences of the varicocele disease which had remained unattended in childhood. They are based on representative collective statistics and examinations of the own patients. The parameters density of spermatozoa, motility of spermatozoa, paternity, volume of the testes and histomorphology of the testes refer to the diminution of the fertility beyond adolescence. Operatively treated children have a more favourable prognosis of fertility.
