Excerpt

Prostatic artery embolization (PAE) is becoming increasingly well recognized as an option to treat men with lower urinary tract symptoms from benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) [1‐9]. Advantages of PAE over existing transurethral techniques (microwave, laser, resection) include the lack of the following complications, which range from 5 to 15 %: urethral trauma or retrograde ejaculation, sphincter injury, nerve damage limiting sexual function, and risk of urological bleeding. This has significant clinical impact with many men avoiding surgical treatment for BPH secondary to fear of complications from existing therapies. PAE also may have a financial impact with the procedure performed on an outpatient basis, whereas the “gold standard” TURP procedure typically requires hospital admission. …
