We report a patient who underwent embolization of a varicocele for chronic testicular pain with Gianturco coils and developed increased bilateral pain. Complete pain relief was achieved by laparoscopic resection of both spermatic cords. The case provides insights into the pathophysiology of testicular pain and may suggest alternative therapies for chronic orchialgia.
