Abstract

Amaç: İnfertilite nedeniyle başvuran hastalarda varikosel ve antropometrik indeks ilişkisini değerlendirmek. Yöntemler: İnfertilite nedeniyle başvuruda bulunan 600 hasta çalışmaya dahil edildi. Varikosel varlığı ve derecesi fizik muayene ile değerlendirildi. Antropometrik indeks parametreleri varikosel varlığı ve derecesi açısından karşılaştırıldı. Antropometrik indexler; vücut kitle indexi, bel çevresi ve bel-kalça oranı kaydedildi. Bulgular: Hastaların 210\'unda (%35) varikosel saptandı. Ortalama vücut kitle indexi, bel çevresi ve bel-kalça oranı; varikoseli olmayanlarda 30.5 ± 6.4 kg/cm2, 86.40 ± 9.97 cm ve 0.89 ± 0.05, varikoseli olanlarda 24.7 ± 5.2 kg/cm2, 81.19 ± 9.01 cm ve 0.82 ± 0.05 idi (p

Abstract

Objective: To evaluate relationship between varicocele and anthropometric indexes in patients presenting with infertility. Methods: 600 male patients presenting with infertility were included in this study. The presence and degree of varicocele were evaluated by physical examination. Anthropometric index parameters were compared in terms of presence of varicocele and grade. The anthropometric indexes including body mass index (BMI), waist circumference (WC) and waist-to-hip ratio (WHR) were recorded. Results: A total of 210 (35%) patients had varicocele. The mean of BMI, WC and WHR of those without varicocele was 30.5 ± 6.4 kg/cm2, 86.40 ± 9.97 cm and 0.89 ± 0.05, respectively. The mean of BMI, WC and WHR with varicocele was 24.7 ± 5.2 kg/cm2, 81.19 ± 9.01 cm and 0.82 ± 0.05 respectively (p
