PAE Advantages for Larger Prostates
- Prostate size influences procedure choice, with minimally invasive surgical therapies suitable for glands around 80 grams.
- Larger prostates (over 100 grams) often necessitate more invasive procedures like prostatectomy or aqua ablation.
- PAE offers a less invasive alternative for a wide prostate size range, but it's especially advantageous for larger glands.
- Its less invasive nature results in reduced anesthesia, lower risks of erectile dysfunction, and suitability for patients on anticoagulation.
- Interventional radiologists should understand various treatment options to provide comprehensive patient care and guide decision-making.
