Abstract:
Objective:To observe the efficacy of laparoscopic high ligation of spermatic vein combined with compound xuanju capsule in treating infertility caused by varicocele.
Methods:Retrospective analysis of 49 cases of infertility caused by varicocele admitted to the Affiliated Hospital Xuzhou Medical University from February 2015 to November 2016, average age was 27.5 years, aged 20-50 years; according to simple random method divided into experimental group (n=20) and control group (n=29). Patients in the experimental group were treated with laparoscopic high ligation of spermatic vein and compound xuanju capsule. Patients in the control group were treated with high ligation of spermatic vein. Semen quality (sperm concentration, forward motor sperm rate, sperm survival rate), peripheral blood sex hormone (follicle stimulating hormone, luteinizing hormone testosterone) were compared between the two groups before and 3 months after surgery. Pregnancy rate of the spouse 1 year after surgery were compared between the two groups. Measurement data were expressed as mean± standard deviation (Mean±SD), and t-test was used for comparison between groups; count data were compared by Chi-square test.
Results:Preoperative sperm concentration [(14.95±2.35) million/ml vs (15.69±3.35) million/ml, P=0.118], forward motor sperm rate [(24.35±3.72)% vs (25.10±3.89)%, P=0.221], sperm survival rate [(27.90±2.59)% vs (26.93±3.20)%, P=0.122]was not statistically significant between experimental group and control group. 3 months after operation, sperm concentration [(23.45±4.39) million/ml vs (20.07±2.91) million/ml, P=0.001], forward motor sperm rate [(34.80±3.56)% vs (31.62±3.75)%, P=0.001], sperm survival rate [(44.55±4.29)% vs (39.52±4.49)%, P=0.001] was statistically significant between experimental group and control group. Preoperative follicle stimulating hormone [(8.97±0.64) IU/L vs (9.17±0.96) IU/L, P=0.238] and luteinizing hormone [(6.75±0.49) IU/L vs (6.64±0.37) IU/L, P=0.744], testosterone [(10.87±1.66) nmol/L vs (9.98±1.17) nmol/L, P=0.064] was not statistical significance between experimental group and control group. 3 months after operation, Follicle stimulation. [(6.96±0.66) IU/L vs (7.34±0.77) IU/L, P=0.043], luteinizing hormone [(6.04±0.39) IU/L vs (6.15±0.38) IU/L, P=0.038], testosterone [(14.46±1.30) nmol/L vs (12.23±2.23) nmol/L, P=0.001] was statistically significant between experimental group and control group. Pregnancy rate of the spouse 1 year of the experimental group was higher than the control group [65.0% (13/20) vs 48.3% (14/29)], but it was not statistically significant between two groups (χ2=1.34, P=0.247).
Conclusions:Laparoscopic high ligation of spermatic vein combined with compound Xuanju capsule in the treatment of infertility caused by varicocele can significantly improve semen quality and sex hormone levels. From visual data, the natural pregnancy rate is also improved compared with the simple operation group. It is worthy of clinical recommendation.
