    • Alternate Title:
      Prostatic artery embolism for the treatment of drug-resistant benign prostatic hyperplasia in elder/high risk patients or patients with recurrent urinary retention and unsuccessful trials without catheter.
    • Abstract:
      Prostate artery embolization (PAE) has been used over the last 7 years with increasing incidence for the treatment of symptomatic benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). To date, more than one thousand BPH patients (especially those with poor response to drug therapy and contraindications for surgical treatment) have undergone PAE with satisfactory clinical results. The aim of this study is to present a single centre experience in PAE performed in elder patients or high risk patients with recurrent urinary retention and unsuccessful trials without catheter.
