Abstract
Ten laparoscopic varicocelectomies were performed using an ultrasonically activated scalpel to divide spermatic vessels in adolescents. The mean operation time was 35 (25-46) min. There were no intra-abdominal viscelar or vascular complications, and no postoperative analgesia was required. These findings suggest that laparoscopic varicocelectomy using an ultrasonically activated scalpel may be a valuable treatment in the adolescent.
