What is testicular sperm extraction (TESE)?

Testicular sperm extraction (TESE) is a minor, outpatient surgical procedure to extract sperm from the testicles for use with in vitro fertilization (IVF). It’s often used in cases of azoospermia or severe male factor infertility. There are several ways sperm can be retrieved, depending on each patient’s diagnosis and reproductive goals.
