Abstract

SUMMARY


Purpose: Determine the relationship between clinical characteristics and semen test with color Doppler ultrasound in adult varicocele patientsunder 40 years old.
Methods: A total of 56 patients with clinical diagnosis of varicocele were clinically graded according to Dubin and Amelar [1], calculated body mass index (BMI), did semen test and color Doppler ultrasound scrotum. Then they were calculated according to Chiou's scoring system [2] to determine varicocele. To assess the relationship we use Chi-Square test, two qualitative variables were identified as relevant when the p-value<0.05.
Results: There was arelationship between diagnosis of Doppler ultrasound according to Chiou with clinical varicocele (p<0.05). There was no relationship between BMI and diagnosis of varicose veins Doppler (p> 0.05). There was a relationship between the semen test and the diagnosis of varicocele on color Doppler ultrasound (p<0.05).
Conclusion: Our study has shown a relationship between color Doppler ultrasound diagnosis based on Chiou's scoring system with clinical grade and semen test in adult varicose veins under 40 years old.
