Can having a varicocele cause a dangerous blood clot?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Uncommon: Blood clot formation is one of the complications of varicocele but it is uncommon for that to cause systemic issues, unless the person has blood clotting disorder, i.e., a tendency to form blood clots. See this site for information and discuss the matter with your doctor. http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/001284.htm
