TESA (Testicular Sperm Aspiration) is a medical procedure used to retrieve sperm from the testicles for use in assisted reproductive technologies such as in vitro fertilization (IVF). The procedure was used for men with infertility due to a low sperm count or absence of sperm in the semen.
What is TESA?
TESA is a minimally invasive procedure that involves the use of a fine needle to aspirate (remove) sperm from the testicles. The process is performed under local anesthesia and typically takes about 30 minutes.
How does TESA work?
During TESA, a fine needle is inserted into the testicle through the scrotum, and sperm are aspirated from the testicular tissue. The collected sperm is processed and used in assisted reproductive technologies such as IVF.
Who is a candidate for TESA?
Men with infertility due to a low sperm count or absence of sperm in the semen may be candidates for Testicular Sperm Aspiration Treatment. The procedure may also be used for men with a history of vasectomy or men who have had a failed vasectomy reversal.
What are the benefits of TESA?
TESA offers several benefits, including:
- The minimally invasive procedure with minimal discomfort and risk
- The high success rate in retrieving sperm
- It can be performed in a single outpatient visit
- High success rates in assisted reproductive technologies such as IVF when sperm is retrieved
