TESA
Advanced Sperm Retrieval Solution for Male Infertility
TESA (Testicular Sperm Aspiration) is a minimally invasive procedure designed to retrieve sperm directly from the testicular tissue in men who have little or no sperm in their ejaculate. It is a highly effective treatment option for men with azoospermia, particularly obstructive azoospermia, where sperm production is normal but the ducts are blocked.
At Amrit Hospital, we offer advanced TESA procedures performed by experienced fertility specialists, ensuring precision, comfort, and the highest standards of reproductive care.
Who Needs TESA?
TESA may be recommended for men who experience:
Obstructive Azoospermia (blocked vas deferens or epididymis)
Non-obstructive Azoospermia (low sperm production)
Previous vasectomy
Congenital absence of the vas deferens
Failure to retrieve sperm using less invasive methods
Severe male fertility issues requiring ICSI
How TESA Works
A fine needle is gently inserted into the testis under local anesthesia to extract small samples of testicular tissue. These samples are processed in our advanced andrology lab to isolate viable sperm.
The retrieved sperm is then used for fertility treatments, most commonly ICSI (Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection).
