The Authors analyze 20 cases of left varicocele, treated surgically, in boys from 10 to 16 years with the mean age of 12 years. During the operation a testicular biopsy was carried out alternatively in both testicles, showing, mostly, a growth arrest of the spermatogenesis. A blood sample from the left internal spermatic vein was taken for the measurement of the testosterone. The Authors discuss the results and emphasize an early correction of the varicocele.
