Abstract
Abstract
Introduction: We report a rare congenital anomaly, varicocele due to circumcaval ureter (CCU) with
infertility. The patient had abnormal semen parameters (decreased sperm motility). Abdominal ultrasound
revealed marked right hydronephrosis and testicular ultrasound revealed right varicoid veins. Urography
showed typical reverse J deformity on the right side. Helical C.T. confirmed the CCU. We performed classical
CCU surgery and in addition Palomo varicocelectomy. The patient became the fertile on the postoperative 8th
month. This is the first case of infertility resulting from CCU in the literature.
