Benign prostatic hyperplasia is a prevalent disease that could be responsible of severe intractable hematuria requiring invasive surgical management.
We report three high-risk cases presented with intractable hematuria of prostatic origin with high medical co-morbidities treated safely and effectively by prostatic artery embolization with favorable outcomes.
In non-surgical, anticoagulated patients, prostatic artery embolization represents a safe and effective intervention for the treatment of intractable hematuria related to benign prostatic hyperplasia.
良性前列腺增生是一种常见疾病,可能导致严重的顽固性血尿,需要进行侵入性手术治疗。
我们报告了 3 例高危病例,这些病例均因前列腺起源的顽固性血尿而就诊,且伴有较高的合并症,通过前列腺动脉栓塞治疗安全有效,结果良好。
对于非手术、抗凝治疗的患者,前列腺动脉栓塞术是治疗与良性前列腺增生相关的顽固性血尿的一种安全有效的干预手段。
