Patient's question:
It has been two months since the laparoscopic high ligation surgery for varicocele in the left spermatic vein. What is the lump attached to the left testicle?Doctor's answer:
The primary cause of left varicocele is that the left testicular vein flows into the renal vein at a right angle, which obstructs the venous blood return and gradually leads to the formation and expansion of varicose veins in the spermatic cord, causing the varicose veins to form a cluster. Therefore, the mass connected postoperatively is the venous cluster. Varicocele can be stabilized, but the treatment process is generally slow, and the condition is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, it is essential to actively cooperate with the doctor's medication plan during treatment. Additionally, patients should maintain a light diet, avoid stimulating foods, and refrain from smoking and drinking beer.
