Abstract excerpt
The pathophysiology of varicocele remains to be unknown. Several genetic factors have been implicated in varicocele etiopathogenesis. We studied the relationship between NOS3 c.894G>T, c.786T>C and 4b/a polymorphisms to varicocele risk and their prognostic value as regards improvement of the post-operative seminal parameters &/or seminal malonaldehyde levels. The three NOS3 polymorphisms were evaluated in 100...
