Answer
Yes, varicocele surgery is considered a very safe and effective procedure with a low risk of serious complications. It is a common surgery performed by urologists to resolve issues like pain and infertility caused by a varicocele. Like any surgical procedure, there are some potential risks, such as infection, bleeding, or bruising at the incision site, but these are uncommon. Modern surgical techniques, especially microsurgery, have made the procedure even safer. The use of a high-powered microscope allows the surgeon to precisely identify and tie off the problematic veins while carefully preserving the important arteries and lymphatic vessels.
This greatly reduces the risk of complications like testicular atrophy or fluid buildup (hydrocele). Most patients recover quickly and can return to their normal activities within a couple of weeks. The highly experienced surgeons at SCI hospital are committed to ensuring the highest standards of safety and care. Please schedule a consultation online or by phone to discuss the procedure.
