Abstract
Objective: To statistic the clinical features, techniques and safety of the prostate artery embolization for treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia. Subject and method: A clinical intervention study on 66 patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia receiving treatment of prostate artery embolization at Frienship Hospital from May 2015 to June 2019. Result: The mean prostate volume of patients in the study was 62.8 ± 29.86mm3, the mean IPSS score was 30.8 ± 2.36, the mean QoL score of 4.7 ± 0.46 points. The technical success rate of prostate artery embolization was 100%, the rate of complete embolization of the prostate artery on both pelvis sides was 83.3%, and the one side embolization was 16.7%. The rate of complications during the intervention was 0%. The rate of complications after the intervention was 31.8%, of which mainly complications were mild and moderate, with 01 case of severe complications accounting for 1.5%. Conclusion: Prostate artery embolization is a safety treatment for benign prostatic hyperplasia.
