[Spermatic-saphenous vein bypass in the treatment of essential varicocele].

A new technique for surgical treatment of idiopathic varicocele is described. This technique consists of internal spermatic vein ligature and its resection and microvascular anastomosis between proximal tract of the internal spermatic and saphenous vein. In this way a communication is established between a high regimen pressure with a lower one. Fourteen idiopathic varicoceles are successfully operated with this new technique.
