"Watch as Scott Schwartz, MD of Wayne State University School of Medicine and Henry Ford Health System, Detroit, MI presents on radial access and equipment for prostate artery embolization. He shares his case experience, equipment preferences and disease information on PAE. This presentation was originally presented at STREAMSK in Washington, D.C. on January 27, 2019.
Symptomatic benign prostatic hyperplasia is a frequent condition that causes uncomfortable lower urinary tract symptoms and a poorer quality of life for the elderly. Prostatic artery embolization (PAE) is gaining popularity as a therapy option with few side effects, minimum blood loss, and few overnight hospitalization. To achieve the best results, careful patient selection and thorough embolization are required. Interventional radiologists must have a detailed understanding of the pelvic arterial anatomy in order to perform PAE safely and avoid non-target embolization."
