Are you suffering from scrotal pain, swollen veins, or discomfort while standing? Are you worried about varicocele-related infertility or low sperm count? At Curis Life Clinic in Andheri West, we offer percutaneous varicocele embolization — a minimally invasive, non-surgical alternative to varicocele repair. Our expert interventional radiologists perform gonadal vein embolization and testicular vein embolization, ensuring safe, effective varicosity embolization for testicles, with quick recovery and minimal downtime.
Whether you have a left-sided varicocele, grade 2/3 varicocele, or varicocele-related discomfort or fertility concerns, our team provides personalized care — preserving your health, comfort, and future fertility.
What is Varicocele Embolization?
Varicocele embolization is a minimally invasive varicocele repair technique, also called endovascular varicocele treatment or non-surgical varicocele treatment. Instead of open surgery, a small catheter is guided through the groin vein to the enlarged gonadal (testicular) vein. Then, tiny coils or embolic agents are placed to block the problematic vein. This stops abnormal blood flow, reduces vein enlargement, and relieves symptoms such as scrotal swelling, varicocele pain, and testicular discomfort while standing.
This procedure is especially beneficial for:
- Men with enlarged scrotal veins or blue bulging veins indicating varicocele
- Those with varicocele-related infertility or low sperm count
- Patients experiencing persistent scrotal pain or heaviness
- Cases where surgical varicocelectomy carries higher risk or is undesired
Because the treatment is done under imaging guidance — by interventional radiology — the process is precise, safe, and involves minimal discomfort and recovery time.
Symptoms and Conditions
Varicocele embolization may be advised when you experience one or more of the following:
- Chronic scrotal pain or ache, especially after standing or long hours at work
- Noticeable swollen testicle veins, “bag of worms” feeling, or visible bulging
- Scrotal swelling or heaviness in one or both testicles
- Discomfort during activity or discomfort lying down due to varicocele
- Infertility issues, low sperm count, or suspected varicocele-related fertility problems
- Previous failure or concern with other treatments, or wish to avoid open surgery
If these symptoms sound familiar, look no further — Curis Life in Andheri West offers modern, effective embolization for lasting relief.
What Causes Varicocele
A varicocele develops due to faulty valves in the veins of the testicle (gonadal veins), which causes blood pooling, vein enlargement, and impaired drainage. Contributing factors can include:
- Congenital weak vein walls or defective venous valves
- Increased pressure in scrotal veins, particularly in standing posture or after strenuous activity
- Hormonal or vascular variations that reduce blood flow or increase pressure
- Long-standing varicocele leading to vein dilation and vein wall weakening
Embolization works by blocking the faulty vein, preventing backward blood flow, thereby stopping pooling and enlarged veins. Normal blood flow is redirected through healthy veins, reducing pressure and resolving the varicocele.
Diagnosis
At Curis Life Clinic — Andheri West, our evaluation includes:
- Clinical examination — palpation to assess “bag-of-worms” feeling or varicocele presence
- Ultrasound Scrotum with Doppler — to detect vein enlargement, blood flow reversal, and measure vein diameter
- Semen analysis — if fertility is a concern, to assess sperm count and quality
- Medical history review — to understand symptoms, duration, and any prior interventions
Once varicocele is confirmed and embolization is appropriate, our interventional radiologist designs a personalized treatment plan.
Precision Medicine
At Curis Life Clinic, we apply precision medicine principles even in varicocele treatment. We tailor your therapy based on:
- The grade and size of varicocele
- Vein anatomy and blood flow dynamics from Doppler ultrasound
- Fertility goals and baseline semen parameters
- Overall health status, lifestyle, and future plans
This personalised approach ensures highest success rates, minimal recurrence risk, and optimal outcomes — whether you come for pain relief, swelling reduction, or fertility improvement.
Recovery and Aftercare – What to Expect
- The procedure is outpatient or short-stay — most men return home the same day.
- Mild discomfort, bruising, or soreness at entry site is common and manageable.
- Avoid heavy lifting or strenuous activity for 1–2 weeks. Light activity usually allowed within a few days.
- Follow-up Doppler ultrasound and, if relevant, semen analysis to assess improvement.
- Long-term — many patients notice reduction of scrotal swelling, pain, and improvement in sperm quality, if varicocele was causing infertility.
Because the treatment is minimally invasive and targeted, recovery is fast and comfortable, with minimal downtime.
