Introduction to Prostate Artery Embolization (PAE) Prostate Artery Embolization (PAE) is a cutting-edge, minimally invasive treatment for Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH), a condition that causes an enlarged prostate. Unlike traditional surgery, PAE offers a less invasive option with quicker recovery times and fewer complications. At Midas Care Clinic, we specialize in providing prostate artery embolization in Vasai, offering expert care and advanced treatment options for our patients. 2. Understanding Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia, or BPH, is a common condition in older men where the prostate gland enlarges, leading to uncomfortable urinary symptoms. These can include frequent

  2. urination, difficulty starting urination, and a weak urine stream. Understanding BPH is crucial for recognizing the benefits of treatments like PAE. 3. How PAE Works PAE works by blocking the blood flow to certain areas of the prostate, causing it to shrink and relieve symptoms. During the procedure, tiny particles are injected into the prostate arteries through a catheter, which is guided by imaging techniques. This reduces the size of the prostate, easing the symptoms of BPH. 4. Benefits of PAE PAE offers numerous benefits: Minimally invasive: No large incisions or major surgery. Quick recovery: Patients often return to normal activities faster. Fewer complications: Reduced risk of side effects compared to traditional surgery. Effective relief: Significant improvement in symptoms and quality of life. For those looking for prostate artery embolization in Vasai, Midas Care Clinic provides top- notch diagnostic services and expert care. 5. PAE Procedure Step-by-Step Here’s what to expect from the PAE procedure: 1.Pre-procedure preparation: You may need to fast and follow specific instructions from your doctor. 2.During the procedure: A catheter is inserted through the groin or wrist and guided to the prostate arteries using imaging. Tiny particles are then injected to block the blood flow to the prostate. 3.Duration: The procedure usually takes about 1-2 hours. 6. Eligibility for PAE Not everyone is a candidate for PAE. Ideal candidates are men with moderate to severe symptoms of BPH who have not responded well to medications or prefer a minimally invasive treatment. Your doctor at Midas Care Clinic will determine if PAE is right for you.

  3. 7. Risks and Complications While PAE is generally safe, it does carry some risks, including: Pain or discomfort at the catheter insertion site Possible urinary tract infections Rarely, non-target embolization Discuss any concerns with your doctor to fully understand the risks and benefits. 8. Post-Procedure Care and Recovery After the PAE procedure: Immediate care: Rest and monitor the insertion site for any signs of infection. Long-term recovery: Most patients can resume normal activities within a few days. Follow-up appointments will ensure the prostate is shrinking as expected. 9. Comparing PAE with Traditional Treatments Compared to traditional treatments like Transurethral Resection of the Prostate (TURP) or medications, PAE offers a less invasive option with a quicker recovery time and fewer side effects. Discussing all available treatments with your doctor will help you make an informed decision. 10. Conclusion Prostate Artery Embolization is a promising treatment for those suffering from BPH. It offers a minimally invasive alternative with significant benefits over traditional surgery.
