Microdissection TESE (Micro-TESE) Treatment in Saudi Arabia

Micro-TESE – Advanced Sperm Retrieval for Non-Obstructive Azoospermia

For men struggling with non-obstructive azoospermia (NOA), the absence of sperm in the semen doesn’t always mean fatherhood is impossible. With Microdissection TESE (Micro-TESE), there’s new hope.

At VIVILITY, we perform advanced Micro-TESE procedures across Saudi Arabia—including Riyadh, Jeddah, Dammam, Mecca, Medina, and more—to help men with even the most challenging fertility conditions retrieve sperm successfully.

Book your consultation now and let our experts assess if Micro-TESE is your best path toward biological fatherhood.

What is Microdissection TESE (Micro-TESE)?

Micro-TESE stands for Microdissection Testicular Sperm Extraction—a highly specialized surgical procedure that uses a microscope to precisely locate and extract sperm-producing tubules from the testicles.

Unlike traditional TESE, Micro-TESE involves identifying small areas within the testes that may still produce sperm, even in men diagnosed with zero sperm production. This precision drastically improves the chances of retrieval in men with non-obstructive azoospermia.

To learn more about this advanced technique, schedule a consultation with our fertility microsurgery team in Jeddah, Dammam, or Medina.

Who Should Consider Micro-TESE in Saudi Arabia?

Micro-TESE is ideal for men with:

• Non-obstructive azoospermia (NOA)
• Failed sperm retrieval with conventional TESE or TESA
• Maturation arrest or Sertoli cell-only syndrome
• Extremely poor sperm production due to testicular failure
• Unexplained male infertility with no sperm in semen despite normal hormonal levels

If you’ve been told you’ll need a sperm donor, Micro-TESE may still offer a chance to use your own genetic material.

How Micro-TESE Works – Step-by-Step

At VIVILITY, we ensure you understand every part of the Micro-TESE journey before you begin. Here’s how the procedure typically unfolds:

1. General anesthesia is administered for complete comfort
2. A small scrotal incision is made to access the testicle
3. Using a surgical microscope, the surgeon carefully examines seminiferous tubules to locate sperm-producing tissue
4. Selected tissue is extracted and immediately analyzed in our lab for viable sperm
5. Retrieved sperm is used for ICSI or cryopreserved for future IVF cycles
6. The procedure is completed as an outpatient surgery, with most patients going home the same day

Micro-TESE vs. Conventional TESE – What’s the Difference?

While both procedures are used to retrieve sperm from the testicles, Micro-TESE offers several clear advantages—especially for men with complex fertility challenges.

In short, Micro-TESE is more precise, less invasive, and offers significantly better success rates in challenging cases.

Micro-TESE and ICSI – A Combined Fertility Strategy

The sperm retrieved through Micro-TESE is typically used in ICSI (Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection)—a powerful assisted reproductive technique where a single sperm is injected into an egg.

Here’s how Micro-TESE and ICSI work together:

• Micro-TESE is scheduled before or on the same day as the egg retrieval
• Sperm is freshly processed or thawed from previous retrievals
• ICSI is performed using the retrieved sperm, maximizing fertilization chances
• The resulting embryos are cultured and transferred into the uterus for implantation

Micro-TESE with ICSI is often the most effective fertility path for men with NOA.
