Can prostate artery embolization (PAE) provide an effective, minimally invasive treatment option for men with an enlarged prostate? In this episode, Vic Senese, RN, BSN, FAUNA, explores Prostate Artery Embolization (PAE) with Dr. Ayygari, as part of a myCME.com educational series on PAE.
PAE is an increasingly important treatment option for men experiencing symptoms caused by benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), also known as an enlarged prostate. Unlike traditional prostate surgery, PAE is performed by an interventional radiologist using a catheter to selectively block blood flow to portions of the prostate. The goal is to reduce prostate volume and improve lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) associated with BPH.
In this episode, we take a closer look at how prostate artery embolization works, how physicians identify the prostate arteries, and where PAE fits among today's treatment options for BPH.
