Find lasting relief with Prostate Artery Embolization (PAE). PAE is a minimally invasive, non-surgical alternative to prostate surgery in Columbus & Westerville.
At Vive Vascular, we treat enlarged prostate with Prostate Artery Embolization (PAE). Discover how this minimally invasive treatment procedure works. You'll see how it reduces blood flow to the prostate and relieves the urinary symptoms associated with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). These symptoms include frequent urination, weak urine stream, and urgency. When you've suffered from these symptoms, or other treatments haven't worked, it's time to try PAE.
PAE is a less invasive procedure requiring only a small entry into the artery. This reduces complications and speeds up recovery compared to traditional surgery.
PAE often allows a faster return to normal activities than invasive surgeries.
PAE is linked to lower risks of certain complications like erectile dysfunction and ejaculatory dysfunction compared to traditional surgery.
