Excerpt

Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is the most common benign neoplasm in men [1, 2]. Transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) is still the “gold standard” surgical treatment for prostates. Due to the relative morbidity of TURP, minimally invasive techniques have been developed as alternatives for treatment for BPH, such as transurethral microwave thermotherapy and other laser ablations, but surgery (accomplished by transurethral or open means) constitutes the traditional treatment for BPH. Taking into account the patients’ comorbidities, surgical intervention in this age group may be considered high risk [3]. We report the radiological and clinical midterm follow-up of PAE in two patients with acute urinary retention due to BPH. …
