Objective To evaluate the best mean for the treatment of varicocele. Methods The clini-cal effects of the high ligation of spermatic vein under the small incisal opening of the poritneum meta abdom-inal membrane and the ligation of spermatic vein under the laparoscope for the varicocele were retrospectively reviewed. The operating time, the postoperative days and the cost of hospitalization were compared of the two methods. Results Comparing with the group of operation and the group of laparoscope. Among the 158 vat-icocele patients with unilateral or bilateral varicocele, there was not statistical difference in the operating time between the two methods (P > 0. 05), whi]e there was significant difference in the postoperative days and the cost of hospitalization(P <0. 05). Conclusions When the bilateral varicoceles were simultaneously ligated, the high ligation of spermatic vein under the laparoscope was the best selection; if the unilateral varicocele was highly ligated or the patients were unconditional or the patients were not fit for laparoscopic operation, the high ligation of spermatic vein under the small incisal opening of peritoneum was the best operating method.
