Surgical Sperm Retrieval (PESA/TESA) at Vardhan Fertility Centre
Hope for Fatherhood Even Without Sperm in Ejaculate
At Vardhan Fertility Centre, we offer Surgical Sperm Retrieval procedures like PESA and TESA to help men with azoospermia (no sperm in semen) become biological fathers. These techniques are minimally invasive, safe, and highly effective—especially when combined with ICSI (Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection) during IVF.
Surgical Sperm Retrieval refers to the extraction of sperm directly from the testis (TESA) or epididymis (PESA) in men who do not have sperm in their ejaculate due to blockages or sperm production issues. It’s a breakthrough fertility solution for men with:
- Obstructive azoospermia
- Non-obstructive azoospermia
- Failed vasectomy reversal
- Congenital absence of vas deferens
PESA (Percutaneous Epididymal Sperm Aspiration):
- Needle-based extraction of sperm from the epididymis
- Done under local anesthesia, quick recovery
TESA (Testicular Sperm Aspiration):
- Sperm extracted from the testicular tissue
- Ideal for men with non-obstructive azoospermia
Both procedures are combined with ICSI to fertilize the egg during IVF.
- Men with no sperm in semen (azoospermia)
- Obstruction in the reproductive tract
- Failed vasectomy reversal or prior surgeries
- Men opting for fertility preservation before cancer treatment
- Couples with previous IVF cycle failures due to male factors
- Experienced andrologists and urologists on board
- State-of-the-art ICSI lab for immediate use of retrieved sperm
- Same-day procedures with minimal discomfort
- Option to freeze sperm for future IVF/ICSI cycles
- High success rate when paired with IVF-ICSI
