View allWhat's the best surgery option for a grade 3 varicocele and how is open surgery done do they use any magnification during the procedure
For grade 3 varicocele, microsurgical varicocelectomy is generally considered the best surgical option, offering the highest success rate and lowest risk of complications. Open surgery, specifically microsurgical subinguinal varicocelectomy, involves making a small incision in the groin area, and the surgeon uses a microscope or loupes (magnifying glasses) to identify and ligate (tie off) the enlarged veins, preserving the testicular artery and lymphatic vessels.

Found a 5.7 mm stone in my right distal ureter near the UV junction on a CT scan. I've passed stones before but no pain right now. Is this one small enough to pass on its own or will I need surgery?
A 5.7mm kidney stone in the distal ureter, close to the ureterovesical junction (UVJ), has a chance of passing on its own but may require medical intervention. The exact likelihood of spontaneous passage depends on various factors, including the stone's shape and composition. While you haven't experienced pain, it's essential to monitor for signs of infection or pain and consult with a healthcare professional for personalized guidance

I'm noticing a vein in the lower part of my right penis that looks pretty concerning. Ive attached some photos for reference. Do you think I should see a doctor about it, or is it nothing to worry about? Everything else seems fine; my erections and ejaculations are normal. I also masturbate pretty regularly, about 3 to 4 times a day. What do you think?
