Patient's question:
In the past two months, I've been experiencing frequent urination and urgency, with a sharp pain every time I urinate, feeling very weak all over, weak ejaculation, and a slight decrease in libido. There are many extra veins on my testicles, like small earthworms, which are very disgusting. I went to the hospital for a thorough examination and was diagnosed with varicocele. What kind of help I need: How much does varicocele surgery cost?Doctor's answer:
The treatment methods for varicocele include surgical and non-surgical approaches, with most literature reports emphasizing surgical treatment. Surgical methods include traditional open surgery (common approaches include retroperitoneal approach and inguinal approach), microsurgery, laparoscopic surgery, and embolization, among others. The choice of treatment should be determined based on the specific condition of the patient, combined with the actual conditions of local medical institutions and the surgeon's proficiency in the technique. If necessary, multiple different methods can be used in combination. The cost of varicocele surgery cannot be generalized, ranging from 5,000 to 10,000 yuan. It is recommended to have the surgery at a reputable Grade III-A hospital in your local area.
