Summary

Pelvic artery tortuosity in patients undergoing prostatic artery embolization (PAE) predicts worse outcomes. Anatomical variations and interventionalist experience significantly impact PAE success and radiation exposure.

Area of Science:

  • Interventional Radiology
  • Vascular Imaging
  • Urology

Background:

  • Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) causes lower urinary tract symptoms.
  • Prostatic artery embolization (PAE) is a treatment for BPH.
  • Predicting PAE outcomes is crucial for patient management.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess if cone-beam CT and digital subtraction angiography can predict radiation exposure and technical success in PAE.
  • To analyze the influence of pelvic arterial anatomy on PAE outcomes.

Main Methods:

  • Prospective study of 104 patients with BPH undergoing PAE.
  • Cone-beam CT used to assess prostatic artery (PA) origin and pelvic artery tortuosity.
  • Analysis of radiation dose, fluoroscopy time, and bilateral PAE rates.
  • Evaluation of interventionalist experience impact on procedure outcomes.

Main Results:

  • Severe pelvic artery tortuosity was associated with longer fluoroscopy times and higher contrast volumes.
  • PA origin from the superior vesical artery led to higher radiation dose and fluoroscopy time compared to the obturator artery.
  • Interventionalist experience significantly affected procedure duration.

Conclusions:

  • Pelvic artery tortuosity is a predictor of poorer technical outcomes in PAE.
  • Specific PA origins (e.g., superior vesical artery) are linked to increased radiation exposure.
  • Interventionalist experience is a key factor in achieving successful PAE outcomes.
