Description
Summary:The study objective is to evaluate the effectiveness of the Speroton complex therapy in combined treatment of oligoasthenospermia in patients with varicocele after microsurgical phlebectomy of varicose veins of the spermatic cord.Materials and methods. Microsurgical phlebectomy of the spermatic cord was performed in 40 men (mean age 33.0 ± 2.3 years) with oligoasthenospermia and varicocele. The patients were divided into 2 groups: the main group included 20 men who were treated with the Speroton complex for 3 months in the postoperative period, and the control group included 20 men who did not take Speroton. The spermogram parameters were evaluated before and after the operation.Results. Three months after the start of treatment, a statistically significant improvement in spermogram indicators was noted in all study groups. It was determined that combined therapy that included the Speroton complex administration for 3 months, statistically significantly led to the more considerable increase in sperm parameters than in control group: the sperm concentration increased to 38.6 and 28.9 mln/ml, respectively, the percentage of progressive motile sperm – to 49.2 and 39.4 %, the percentage of motile forms – to 72.2 and 43.8 %, viable forms – to 67.8 and 58.1 %, and the percentage of sperm with DNA fragmentation decreased to 12.1 and 17.2 %, respectively, in the main and control groups.Conclusion. Combined treatment with postoperative Speroton therapy for men of reproductive age with infertility and varicocele determines the more significant improvement in the parameters of sperm than performing only surgical correction of varicocele.
