Can varicocele recur after varicocelectomy?

Varicocele: Definitely, especially if you miss a tributary of the main vein during surgery.

Yes, ...: The varicocele recurrence rate for non-microscopic inguinal varicocelectomy is reportedly 9% to 16% compared to a 1% to 2% recurrence rate for varicocele repairs performed microsurgically. So its recurrence does happen.
