The aim of this study was to evaluate surgical complications and the outcome of grade II and III varicoceles treated with Tauber's antegrade scrotal sclerotherapy.
A total of 21 patients with a median age of 13 (range, 10 to 21) years and left-sided grade II and III varicoceles were treated with Tauber's antegrade scrotal sclerotherapy and underwent follow-up over a median period of 23 months (range, 9 to 35).
One grade II varicocele persisted after antegrade sclerotherapy for 6 months. After a second sclerotherapy 6 months later, no further recurrence was detected. One patient with a grade II to III varicocele had a grade I varicocele recurrence 14 months after operation. Three patients showed a slight hydrocele postoperatively.
This limited series indicates that Tauber's antegrade scrotal sclerotherapy is a safe and effective treatment for grade II and III varicoceles in children and adolescents.
本研究旨在评估采用陶伯顺行性阴囊硬化疗法治疗Ⅱ级和Ⅲ级精索静脉曲张的手术并发症及治疗效果。
共有21例中位年龄为13岁(范围10至21岁)且患有左侧Ⅱ级和Ⅲ级精索静脉曲张的患者接受了陶伯顺行性阴囊硬化疗法,并进行了中位时长为23个月(范围9至35个月)的随访。
1例Ⅱ级精索静脉曲张在顺行硬化疗法治疗6个月后仍持续存在。6个月后进行第二次硬化疗法后,未检测到进一步复发。1例Ⅱ至Ⅲ级精索静脉曲张患者在术后14个月出现Ⅰ级精索静脉曲张复发。3例患者术后出现轻微鞘膜积液。
这个有限的系列研究表明,陶伯顺行性阴囊硬化疗法是治疗儿童和青少年Ⅱ级和Ⅲ级精索静脉曲张的一种安全有效的方法。
