  • Step 3 – Top Vein Check (Saphenous?)
    The great saphenous vein is in the leg, not directly linked to sperm. Possibly you meant pampiniform plexus (testicular vein). If varicocele is found, surgery (varicocelectomy) may be "top" treatment.

    • Under 25x magnification, Dr. Safeno identified a cluster of dilated, opaque tubules—typically a sign of obstruction. But when he micro-dissected them, active sperm were seen swimming. The lab counted 14 million sperm per mL post-wash. Q: Can any urologist perform the Safeno technique

    The word “safeno” derives from the Greek saphenes (visible), because the great saphenous vein is superficially visible along the medial leg.
