Prostatic Artery Embolization | New Outpatient Treatment for Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia Webinar
Вставка
- Опубліковано 2 тра 2023
- Enlarged prostate, also known as benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), is a common urological condition known to cause a range of urinary problems. Fortunately, the Prostatic Artery Embolization (PAE) procedure is a minimally invasive outpatient procedure used to successfully treat BPH with lower risk of urinary incontinence and sexual side effects, when compared with more invasive surgical procedures. Interventional radiology expert, Dr. Brian Holly, discusses the procedure and how it may be the solution you are looking for.

this is an excellent video. I have reviewed numerous UA-cam videos covering everything from turp to eurolift. This is the procedure that I feel is best for me at age 78 and not wanting to be tied down waiting several weeks for healing and removal of a catheter. however, my urologist is a traditionalist and is not open to getting PAE. I’m going to need to find a local interventional radiologist who wants to take my case on. I hope I don’t have to lose my urology practitioner. However, my comfort is of upmost importance.
Thank you for this webinar very interesting class
In doing PAE is it always necessary to use dyes to highlight blood vessels?
PAE did not work! Why?
Dear Doctor: Assuming a patient with BPH has the PAE procedure and his prostate shrinks by 25% over time, does the prostate remain this reduced size or do you find that it later resumes growing?
Unfortunately, because each person’s medical situation is different, we are unable to provide treatment recommendations or second opinions via this form of communication. For specific questions, we suggest reaching out to a doctor directly.
@@JohnsHopkinsMedicine Okay, do any studies reveal the continued growth / enlargement of the prostate in those study participants who underwent PAE? Thanks
Başarısız sonuç aldım.
Do you use anticoagulation during the PAE in order to avoid any non-prostatic emboli?
Thank you for this informative presentation. Can you have Aquablation after PAE if ever necessary? I hope this falls into the category of "no question is stupid!"
I was told by a urologist that you can have any procedure subsequent to the PAE, which is a benefit to this procedure.
@@DonOneDetroit Thank you!
@@DonOneDetroitafter PEA, patients need adjuvant medications and may then need surgery such as TURP or HoLEP and so on!
My husband isn't able physically to have other procedures for prostate. This was a only & last option. He had it yesterday at another facility, as we live out of state. Hoping it will help some at least! The meds drop his BP, but he takes them
isn't rezum a lot more effective. takes less time and the recovery is less. diesnt the steamed water do the same thing?
The obvious question is how long does it last
I have significant urine retention. I have a lobe from the prostate up in my bladder. Can PAE treat that lobe along with the prostate itself or does it rule PAE out?

What are the beads made of? And do they get absorbed eventually?
Thank you for your question. To find out more, call 410-502-6611 and speak directly to the Johns Hopkins Interventional Radiology Center to schedule a consultation.
Any research on these particles getting loose and causing problems elsewhere?
Can these particles move around and cause blockages anywhere else in the body causing stroke or heart attack?
My prostate has enlarged from taking trt replacemnt..no cancer..would this be the fix for this issue,,thx
I just had mine done & it was without incident. Other than feeling like I had an ostrich egg up my bum the first day, I never used Pyridium or naproxen. Steroids and antibiotics were all I needed. One month out I’m noticing improvement. Be advised, my insurance was billed $24,750! Ouch!
What antibiotic was prescribed?
Thanks for the info
My husband wants this, he has taken Flomax but he faints from it.
Tell him to stop taking them immediately.
Are grams equivalent to CCs in the prostate?
My MRI said how many CCs my prostate was, but I would think it to be hard to say how many grams it weighed in a living person. Anyone know the answer?
Yes to your first question. I have researched this for my own prostate. Basically, each gram in weight of water at a certain temperature is equal to one CC in volume. The prostate is more than water, but close enough for practical purposes of comparisons. So, if your prostate is 70 CC on the MRI, it weighs about 70 grams, more or less. Urologists will use these measurements interchangeably.
Thanks for the video. Are there any negative affects from the smaller prostate - ie low amount of semen? Thanks
Im 42 years old. Am i too young young to have this surgery ?

Don't do this! Prostate Arterial Embolization DOES NOT WORK!! I had it done at the City of Hope in California. It didn't shrink my prostate at all. All my LUTS symptoms continued and even got worse.
I'm trying the iTind Procedure which boasts a much higher success rate than PAE.
