Available options for male vasectomy reversal
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
Due to the very high costs of U.S. hospitalization, we perform both "open" microsurgical tubal reanastamosis at our Guadalajara facility only. The surgery is carried out by U.S. Board Certified physicians and involves a 3-5 day hospital stay. Success rates in selected cased approach 85%. Hospital San Javier in Guadalajara is the most modern facility in all of Mexico and the hospital is certified by the U.S. Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Facilities. Hospital prices ($4,800 total hospital costs) are less than one third comparable U.S. prices, with no compromise in quality or success. Surgeon's fees are extra but are also substantially lower than U.S. prices. Surgery is carried out by Board Certified U.S. Reproductive Specialists at the Center for Reproductive Medicine at Hospital San Javier in Guadalajara, Mexico. Hospital San Javier is Mexico's leading medical and surgical facility. The hospital can be found listed on the very exclusive U.S. Department of State referral site for advanced medical care in Mexico.
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.
