Summary

The purpose of this prospective randomized controlled study is to compare the improvement of symptoms from benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and the improvement of QoL, in patients undergoing prostatic artery embolization (PAE) or conventional transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP).

Conditions

  • Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia

Interventions

PROCEDURE

PAE

Embolization of the prostate with gelatin embolization spheres via microcatheterization of the prostatic arteries.

DEVICE

Gelatin microspheres

Gelatin embolization microspheres (300-500 microns) will be used as embolic material for the prostatic artery embolization (PAE) protocol

PROCEDURE

TURP

Bipolar transurethral resection of the prostate

DEVICE

Bipolar electrosurgery generator

A bipolar electrosurgery generator will be used to perform transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP)
