SUMMARY A new technique for varicocele treatment is described. It consists of plication of the fascio‐muscular tube of the spermatic cord, aiming at correction of the tubal subluxation commonly found in varicocele. Fifty‐two patients were operated on with encouraging results. The factors to which the results may be attributed are discussed. In contrast to the other commonly practised procedures, the plication operation is an attempt at correction of a basic factor responsible for varicocele initiation.
