Varicocele is pathological expansion and tortuosity of the scrotum. The term Varicocele refers mainly to the expansion and tortuosity of the components of the venous plexus draining the testicles. This plexus is located on the back of the testicles and epididymis. The morphological method is one of the most objective in assessing the state of varicose and convoluted veins with Varicocele. Knowledge of the morphological status of varicose veins of the scrotum can serve as a determining factor in choosing the method of surgery. However, there is a small number of studies of structural changes in v. spermatica with Varicocele. To study varicose veins of the seminal veins, their fragments were obtained during surgical excision of persons aged 15-20 years. Samples were fixed in 10-12 % solution of neutral formalin. After appropriate treatment, the pieces were poured into paraffin and sections were prepared 5-7 μm thick. The general morphological picture was studied on sections stained with hematoxylin and eosin. For scanning electron microscopy the preparations after fixing in 2.5 % solution of glutaraldehyde on phosphate buffer were subjected to dehydration in alcohol-acetone. Among the identified accumulations of blood cells, erythrocytes dominate, and their pathological forms are echinocytes. Identified features should be considered when conducting surgical treatment of Varicocele.
