Dynamics of sperm antibody levels in adolescents with left-sided varicocele

Varicocele means a varicose vein of the spermatic cord, being among the most common disorders diagnosed in childhood and adolescence, which suggests a high risk for infertility. Varicocele is considered an additional factor for immune-dependent infertility which results from damaged hemato-testicula...
