[The combined treatment of male infertility in patients with idiopathic varicocele].

The author reports on 1066 patients with idiopathic varicocele and fertility disturbances, in whom surgical intervention was made by the method of Ivanissevich--a high resection of the internal testicular vena. Stimulating hormonal therapy of spermatogenesis with gonadotropic preparation Pregnyl was used according to a scheme in 246 patients, nonaffected by surgical treatment with a number of spermatozoa under 40 millions/cm3. Improvement of spermatozoa parameters was found in 31.70% of the operated patients; pregnancies of their wives occurred in 15.85% of the examined men.
