Our experienced team of fertility specialists is skilled in performing this advanced procedure, providing an opportunity for couples to achieve their dream of having a family.

What is Surgical Retrieval of Sperm?

Surgical Retrieval of Sperm, also known as Testicular Sperm Aspiration (TESA) or Testicular Sperm Extraction (TESE), is a highly specialized procedure designed to collect sperm directly from the testicles or epididymis when they are not present in the ejaculate. This is often the case in conditions such as azoospermia (absence of sperm in semen) or when the male partner has undergone a vasectomy. By surgically obtaining viable sperm, we can utilize advanced assisted reproductive technologies (ART) like Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI) to fertilize eggs during IVF treatment.

Who can benefit from Surgical Retrieval of Sperm?

Surgical Retrieval of Sperm is an essential solution for men facing certain fertility challenges, including

1. Azoospermia
For men with azoospermia, whether it's obstructive (sperm production is normal but blocked from reaching the semen) or non-obstructive (limited or absent sperm production), TESA or TESE can recover sperm from the testicles for fertility treatment.
2. Vasectomy Reversal
In cases where a previous vasectomy was performed, Surgical Sperm Retrieval offers an alternative means of obtaining sperm for conception without the need for a vasectomy reversal procedure.
3. Ejaculatory Dysfunction
Men with ejaculatory dysfunction, such as retrograde ejaculation, may have viable sperm present in the bladder or epididymis, accessible through surgical retrieval.
4. Genetic Conditions
For individuals with certain genetic conditions that affect sperm production, surgical sperm retrieval can provide a pathway to parenthood through assisted reproductive techniques.

The Surgical Retrieval of Sperm Process

1. Pre-procedure Evaluation
Before proceeding with Surgical Retrieval of Sperm, our fertility specialists conduct a thorough evaluation of the male partner, including medical history, physical examination, and diagnostic tests. This assessment helps us determine the most suitable surgical approach for sperm retrieval.
2. Surgical Procedure
The actual sperm retrieval procedure is typically performed under local or general anesthesia, ensuring the patient's comfort and well-being throughout. Depending on the individual case, our fertility experts may choose one of the following techniques: • Testicular Sperm Aspiration (TESA): In TESA, a fine needle is used to extract sperm directly from the testicles. This method is often employed in cases of obstructive azoospermia. • Testicular Sperm Extraction (TESE): TESE involves the removal of a small piece of testicular tissue through a small incision. The sperm-containing tissue is then carefully dissected in the laboratory to isolate viable sperm.
3. Laboratory Analysis
Once the sperm is obtained through the surgical procedure, our skilled embryologists evaluate its quality and viability for use in assisted reproductive techniques like ICSI.
4. Assisted Reproductive Treatment
Following sperm retrieval, the retrieved sperm can be used in conjunction with IVF and ICSI to fertilize eggs in the laboratory setting. The resulting embryos are then transferred into the woman's uterus for potential implantation and pregnancy.
