[Semeiotic flowmetry in complex varicocele].

Abstract

The Authors report on their specific experience on the funicular Doppler veocimetry, regarding the varicocele. In particular we enhance the semeiological spects of the C.W. Doppler velocimetry in the sub-clinical varicocele, in the bilateral one and in the characterization of the spermatic and cremasteric refluxes, and of the external pudenda vein. The Authors stress the utility of the definition of the amount of the reflux, so achieving an integration with the existing classification by degrees, that as it is now days expressed, it seems, to regard the elapsed time and the quantity of reflux caused by the Valsalva manoeuvre. In the practical velocimetry those elements have not been proved to have a parallel increment. Lastly, we report on some cases of veno-spermatic refluxes, uniquely observed in the clynostatism, along with a missing orthostatism. Moreover the Authors believe that some of these hemodynamical consideration could be revisited.
