Abstract
An alternative method for bilateral spermatic vein ligation is present ed. With a retroperitoneoscopic approach, the vascular structures are clearly identified, and damage to the intraperitoneal organs, spermati c arteries and lymphatics is minimized. We believe that the potential complications of transperitoneal laparoscopic techniques may be decrea sed with a retroperitoneoscopic approach.
