IVF+TESE
The testicular sperm extraction (TESE) method is one of the most effective remedies for male infertility, used when there are few or no spermatozoa in the seminal fluid. In such cases, testicular biopsy is performed, and spermatozoa are extracted from the tissue sample to be then used for egg fertilization.
What is the IVF+TESE method? In what cases is IVF+TESE used?
The IVF+TESE method is used when there are no spermatozoa in the seminal fluid and they can be extracted only by puncturing the testicle. Micro tools are then used to inject a spermatozoon directly into the egg cytoplasm to cause insemination and start a new life.
Can tissues obtained in a TESE procedure be frozen and used in subsequent cycles?
To provide long-term storage, we freeze eggs, spermatozoa, testicular tissues and embryos in liquid nitrogen at minus 196 degrees Celsius. They can be reused in future cycles of artificial insemination.
