Description
Rupam Deori and co-authors assess a prostate artery treatment for enlarged prostate in this 2024 study from India. The condition, benign prostatic hyperplasia, blocks urine flow in many older men. Blocking the prostate's arteries can shrink the gland without major surgery.
The team reviewed twenty-five patients treated at one center over four years. Symptom scores and quality-of-life forms tracked how men felt before and after. Ultrasound measured prostate size and leftover urine in the bladder. Short-term outcomes show whether the relief held up. A less invasive option matters for men unfit for surgery. The single-center record adds Indian data to a growing field. Symptom relief, not cure, is the honest goal of the method.
