Abstract
Venography has been proposed as an aid in preventing persistent varicoceles after internal spermatic vein ligation. Since 1984, 10 patients between 4 and 18 years old underwent successful outpatient varicocelectomy with high ligation and intraoperative internal spermatic venography to assure that all appropriate veins and collaterals had been isolated before ligation.
