PAE: Shrink Your Enlarged Prostate Through Your Arteries (Not Your Penis!)
Thanks for tuning in to the Armor Men’s Health Hour Podcast, where we bring you the latest and greatest in urology care and the best urology humor out there. Today, Dr. Mistry answers a listener question about HIFU. Our listener has heard us discuss high intensity focused ultrasound as a treatment for prostate cancer and wonders if it could also treat his enlarged prostate. HIFU is a well established treatment modality for precisely targeting cancerous areas of the prostate and ablating them while minimizing impact to surrounding tissues and reducing potential side effects. It is not, however, a recommended treatment for an enlarged prostate. HIFU can actually cause more prostate swelling and generally fails to shrink the prostate quickly enough. Instead, Dr. Mistry offers the non-invasive and very effective procedure of prostate artery embolization to treat enlarged prostate. Performed by interventional radiologists, our excellent partners at Advantage IR, this process involves using the arteries (vs. going up through the penis) to cut off part of the blood supply to the prostate, thereby shrinking it in size. Our patients have had wonderful results with PAE, and many have reported they no longer need their medications and have achieved more robust erections! If you or someone you love has an enlarged prostate, please call us today to learn more about your treatment options, include prostate artery embolization.
