MIAMI, Florida—Board-Certified Diagnostic and Interventional Radiologist Adam S. Gropper, M.D., Founder of Prostate Specialists of Miami, has released a free guide for men with benign prostatic hypertrophy. Entitled, 5 Reasons to Choose Prostate Artery Embolization, it explains the benefits of this revolutionary procedure for those suffering from BPH, which affects 30 percent of men over 50 and 90 percent over 85. The guide helps men understand why Prostate Artery Embolization (PAE) is the superior choice among minimally invasive procedures to treat Benign Prostatic Hypertrophy (BPH) or prostate enlargement.

“Often, men diagnosed with BPH don’t realize that there are other treatment options besides surgery or medications,” says Dr. Gropper. “In my experience, PAE is one of the best alternatives because it offers a proven track record with minimal side effects.”

Common symptoms associated with BPH include frequent urination, urinary incontinence, chronic urinary tract infections, pain or discomfort during urination, and inability to empty the bladder or bloody urine. PAE is an outpatient procedure that takes less than two hours and involves inserting a catheter into an artery in the groin area while under local anesthesia. The catheter delivers particles that block off blood flow to the enlarged prostate tissue causing it to shrink over time while preserving healthy tissue surrounding it. Patients typically notice immediate relief after the procedure and can return home shortly afterward without requiring any antibiotics or hospital stays.

“The technology behind PAE has been used for decades in cardiology and oncology,” says Dr. Gropper. “Thanks to advances in medical technology, we can now use these same techniques to treat BPH.”

In his guide, 5 Reasons To Choose Prostate Artery Embolization, Dr. Gropper outlines five key benefits that make this procedure so attractive:

  • No incisions are required
  • No general anesthesia is needed
  • Shorter recovery period
  • Fewer side effects
  • Improved quality of life 

In addition, PAE has a lower risk for complications like impotence or incontinence compared to traditional surgeries like TURP (Transurethral Resection of the Prostate)

“I created this guide as a way for men to make informed decisions about their health,” says Dr. Gropper. “I want them to be aware of all their options so they can choose what’s best for them.”
