Surgical Sperm Aspiration (TESA) is a minimally invasive procedure used to extract sperm directly from the testes for in-vitro fertilization (IVF) when conventional methods fail.
Usually performed under local anesthesia, TESA has a success rate of around 40% per cycle. Multiple attempts may be required.
