Abstract：
:The authors evaluate the incidence of varicocele after having examined 18,800 healthy white men members of the Italian Army Corps born in 1966 and visited in 1985. They found a varicocele in 775 patients (4.12%), in 5 was present bilaterally, and in 770 in the left side. In 45 patients the surgical treatment was already done at the time of the examination and there were 3 recurrences. The patients with varicocele were divided according to the classification of Dubin-Amelar and were: grade I n. 175 (0.93%); grade II n. 515 (2.74%); grade III n. 35 (50.18%). In 566 (73.03%) the diagnosis was done at the moment of the examination, 152 (19.62%) discovered the varicocele at the self examination; in 57 (7.37%) the diagnosis was already done by the family doctor. Infertility is sometime associated to the varicocele and with the unrelieved local discomfort are the main indications for surgery. It should be also emphasized the need of education on the infertility problems during the high school that is a time of the life in which there is the highest incidence of varicocele.
