Radial Access for Prostatic Artery Embolization
Prostatic artery embolization (PAE, or prostate artery embolisation) is a non-surgical treatment for benign prostatic hypertrophy (BPH). To reduce the size of the prostate gland, microparticles are injected via a tiny catheter to obstruct the blood flow of minor branches of the prostatic arteries. It is a minimally invasive therapy that can be done as an outpatient procedure with local anaesthetic.
Join Dr. Keith Pereira and Dr. Aaron Fischman as they discuss pushing the boundaries of endovascular interventions for prostate artery embolization, address diagnosis and treatment algorithms for the patient with BPH, and gain insights on device selection, microcatheter and wire manipulation, methods of access and intervention, and review the patient outcomes data in this fast-growing endovascular procedure.
