Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), or an enlarged prostate, is a common condition that many men experience as they get older. It happens when the prostate grows larger, but the growth is non-cancerous. Unfortunately, this extra tissue can squeeze the urethra and cause frustrating urinary symptoms.
Those with BPH often experience one or more of the following symptoms:
If untreated, BPH can also lead to urinary tract infections (UTIs) and more serious urinary and kidney complications.
Don’t wait—seek medical treatment at the first sign of symptoms to prevent complications and improve your quality of life.
Prostate artery embolization (PAE) is a minimally invasive outpatient procedure designed to relieve urinary symptoms caused by BPH. PAE treatment is ideal for men who haven’t found relief with other treatments or are not candidates for surgery.
During PAE, an interventional radiologist uses a tiny catheter to inject microbeads into the arteries supplying blood to the prostate. This reduces blood flow, shrinking the prostate and easing pressure on the urethra.
If you’re looking for an effective, non-surgical solution for relieving urinary discomfort caused by an enlarged prostate, PAE offers the following benefits:
Lower risk of complications
(e.g., urinary incontinence, retrograde ejaculations, impotence, and sexual dysfunction).
Enhanced quality of life
(e.g., fewer urinary problems and less pain).
Less downtime and more
comfortable recovery.
This procedure is performed in an outpatient, non-hospital setting, so you don’t need to worry about an extended hospital stay.
