Abstract

ABSTRACT The article describes the case of a 30-year-old man who complained of a year of infertility despite regular intercourse with his 29-year-old wife. He was found out to have had normal bilateral testis, epididymides, vas deferens and a grade I palpable left varicocele. Real-time Sonoelastography, an evolving ultrasound modality which adds the ability to assess the stiffness of biological tissues, was performed on the patient to evaluate abnormalities on scrotal ultrasound examination.
