Reversal Procedures
Vasectomy Reversal
Our Centers are staffed by Board Certified Urologists that
specialize in male infertilty. We provide classic microsurgical vasectomy
reversal procedures, along with techniques such as MESA, TESA and PESA (see
below) which include simple, through the anesthetised skin, needle aspiration of
sperm, and methods to overcome failed vasectomy reversals. Cost for vasectomy
reversal is approximately $6,400.00.
Tubal Ligation Reversal
We perform both laparoscopic and "open" microsurgical
tubal reanastamosis. Success rates in selected cased approach 85%. These
procedures are also offered by our Guadalajara based associates at facilities in
Mexico at substantially lower hospital prices ($7,200 total cost), with no
compromise in success.
ALTERNATIVES TO VASECTOMY REVERSAL:
MESA, TESA, PESA
For those wishing to avoid the reversal of a prior vasectomy, either for standard In Vitro Fertilization (IVF)
or for advanced IVF procedures involvng guaranteed gender selection, we are able to offer MESA (Microsurgical Epididymal
Sperm Aspiration), TESA (Testicular Sperm Aspiration) or PESA (Percutaneous "no incision" Sperm Aspiration).
These procedures involve our board certified fertility Urologist aspirating sperm directly from testicular
structures at the same time that the eggs from the female are obtained. The recovered sperm are then used to inseminate
the waiting eggs. Fertilization and pregnancy rates approach the same levels achieved with successful vasectomy reversal procedures
with minimal or no incisions. This procedure is most appropriate for couples interested in one or perhaps two additional children.
"Extra" sperm obtained from the aspiration in excess of that needed for the initial egg insemination may often be frozen and
cryopreserved for future use.
