The patient's successful removal of the bladder catheter after 10-15 days. Postintervention 3 months, average evaluation of IPSS, Qol, PSA (ng/ml), and PV (cm3) decreased 58,48%; 76,03%; 80,95%; 29,97% (ultrasound) 31,75% (MRI); Qmax 12,46(ml/s), PVR 45,84(ml)
Conclusion: PAE in patients with AUR due to BPH is safe and effective
