Abstract

SUMMARY


Objective: To acess the results of prostatic artery embolization
(PAE) in patients wwith significant intravesical prostatic protrusion
(IPP).
Material and methods: Prospective analysis of 45 consecutive patients with significant IPP undergoing PAE. We measured IPP on sagittal T2-weighted images before and after PAE. IPSS and clinical results were also evaluated before and after PAE.
Results: PAE resulted in significant IPP reduction (16.9 ± 7.9mm before PAE and 13.2 ± 6.6mm after PAE, p < 0.001) (Fig. 1) with no complication. IPSS, quality of life (QoL), total prostate-specific antigen (PSA) level, and prostate volume (PV) showed significant reduction after PAE, and maximum urinary flow rate (Qmax) showed significant increase after PAE. A significant correlation was found between the IPP change and the IPSS change (r = 0.628, p = 0.001).
Conclusion: Patients had significant IPP reduction as well as significant symptomatic improvement after PAE, and these improvements were positively correlated.
