Description
What is it?
Prostatic artery embolization (PAE) is a minimally invasive treatment to improve lower urinary tract symptoms caused by benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). BPH is a non-cancerous enlargement of the prostate gland and is the most common benign tumor found in men.
The PAE procedure is performed by an interventional radiologist (IR), a doctor who uses X-rays and other advanced imaging to see inside the body and treat conditions without surgery.
How do I know if PAE is right for me?
The PAE procedure is for candidates who are either ineligible or not interested in traditional surgery. An exam with an interventional radiologist can determine if you are a candidate for PAE. At this appointment, you may be asked how often you have urinary symptoms of BPH, how severe they are, and how much they affect your quality of life.
Why not (Contraindications)?
Patients are excluded from treatment if they have malignancy, renal insufficiency, bladder stones, a neurogenic bladder (a neurologic disorder that may affect bladder function), urethral stricture, an active urinary tract infection, or prostatitis.
What you are to do before procedure (Preparation)?
1. Book prior appointment if elective or get admission in causality if emergency
2. Lab investigation (*PT/INR, CBC, Serum Creatinine, Viral markers)and previous records. An MRI or ultrasound of the prostate gland.
3. Urine test (urinalysis)
4. In some cases, a PSA (prostate specific antigen) test is done to rule out prostate cancer.
5. 4-6 Hours fasting.
