Abstract

Aim: We aimed to investigate the effects of varicocelectomy on semen analysis and pregnancy in infertile men. Patients and Methods: We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of patients underwent varicoselectomy between 2009 and 2014 in two referal hospitals, and 180 infertile patients with complete records were included. All surgeries were performed by using a microscope or loop. The preoperative and postoperative sperm parameters and spontaneous pregnancy rates were evaluated. Results: Mean age of the patients was 29.6 (17-46) years. 99 (55%) of the patients achieved spontaneous pregnancy after the surgery. 81 (45%) of the patients were guided to infertility polyclinics for assisted reproductive methods. When the sperm parameters were analyzed, the rate of the patients who had improved sperm concentrations were 22.7%; the rate of the patients who had improved sperm motility (a+b) was 59.4%; the rate of the patients who had improved sperm morphology was 51.1% (p<0.05). Conclusion: Consisted to the existing literature, our study has demonstrated the positive effects of microscopic varicocelectomy on semen analysis and pregnancy rates.

Özet

Amaç: Primer infertil erkeklerde mikroskobik varikoselektomi ameliyatının semenanalizi ve gebelik üzerine etkilerini değerlendirmeyi amaçladık.Hastalar ve Yöntem: İki merkezde 2009-2014 yılları arasında, tek taraflı ya da bilateralmikroskobik varikoselektomi yapılan hastaların verileri retrospektif olarak incelendive kayıtları tam olan 180 primer infertil hasta çalışmaya dahil edildi. Tümhastalarda büyüteç olarak mikroskop ya da loop kullanılarak işlem gerçekleştirildi.Hastaların preoperatif ve postoperatif sperm parametreleri ve spontan gebelik oranlarıkarşılaştırıldı.Bulgular: Hastaların yaş ortalaması 29.6 (17-46) yıl idi. 99 (%55) hastada cerrahisonrası spontan gebelik sağlanırken, 81 (%45) hasta yardımcı üreme yöntemleri içininfertilite polikliniğine yönlendirildi. Sperm parametreleri irdelendiğinde, konsantrasyonundadüzelme saptanan hasta oranı %22.7; hareketlilikte (a+b) düzelme saptananhasta oranı %59.4; morfolojide düzelme saptanan hasta oranı oranı ise %51.1olarak tespit edildi (p<0.05).Sonuç: Bu çalışma, literatür verileriyle uyumlu olarak primer infertil hastalardamikroskopik varikoselektominin semen analizi ve gebelik üzerine olan olumlu katkısınıortaya koymuştur.
