SPERM SEARCH TESA, TESE
Surgical Sperm Retrieval
Sperm retrieval is a treatment option used in male infertility cases (especially azoospermia). Omni IVF Clinic stands out as a center serving international patients in reproductive health and in vitro fertilization (IVF) treatments.
Surgical Sperm Retrieval Methods
These techniques are used to collect sperm directly from the male reproductive system:
TESE (Testicular Sperm Extraction): A small sample of testicular tissue is removed to search for sperm.
Micro-TESE: Testicular tissue is examined under a microscope to obtain samples from areas where sperm are most likely to be found.
PESA (Percutaneous Epididymal Sperm Aspiration): Needle aspiration of sperm from the epididymis.
MESA (Microsurgical Epididymal Sperm Aspiration): Microsurgical collection of sperm from the epididymis.
How Does the Process Work?
- Medical Evaluation: Initially, hormone tests, genetic analyses, and a physical examination are performed to determine the cause of infertility.
- Method Selection: The most appropriate surgical technique is determined based on the patient's condition (e.g., obstructive/non-obstructive azoospermia).
- Surgery: This is performed under local or general anesthesia. Collected sperm can be frozen for use in IVF/ICSI or used directly.
- Success Rates: Micro-TESE has a 60-80% chance of finding sperm in non-obstructive cases.
