At Vascular Centers of Texas, PAE may offer an alternative to traditional surgical approaches for appropriately selected patients. By reducing blood flow to the prostate, the procedure can help shrink prostate tissue and improve symptoms such as frequent urination, difficulty starting or maintaining urine flow, weak stream, and incomplete bladder emptying.

Minimally Invasive Treatment for BPH

PAE is performed through a small catheter access point and generally does not require an incision into the prostate. Our vascular team evaluates each patient individually to determine whether PAE is an appropriate treatment option based on their symptoms, medical history, and prostate condition.
