D) A normal vas deferens resent varicosities within
the scrotum. These require
further investigation if they
occur only on the right
side or do not resolve in
the supine position. They
can contribute to infertili-
ty because the testicles are
unable to achieve a cool
enough temperature for
sperm production, due to
increased blood flow from
the varicocele. A hydrocele
would be a painless mass
on the spermatic cord and
the vas deferens is palpat-
ed as part of the spermat-
ic cord. You should lightly
pinch the scrotum medial-
ly and move laterally un-
til you feel the spermat-
ic cord pass between your
fingers.
