Abstract

Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is one of the most common diseases of the genitourinary system. BPH prevalence increases in men with advancing age, highlighting the necessity of minimally invasive surgical procedure including super-selective prostatic artery embolization (PAE). The current role of the PAE for BPH treatment according to recent national and international publications is discussed in this review. The data from the largest studies are structured and presented along with our experience in PAE. In addition, a need to continue research on this topic is underlined.

Keywords: BPH; PAE; embolization; minimally invasive surgical procedures; super-selective embolization of prostatic arteries.
