At Rad-Vasc Medical, we specialize in Prostate Artery Embolization (PAE), a non-surgical, minimally invasive treatment for men suffering from benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). Our advanced approach helps reduce prostate size, improve urinary symptoms, and restore quality of life—without the risks of traditional surgery.
Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) is a common condition in men as they age, where the prostate gland becomes enlarged and presses against the urethra. This can lead to uncomfortable and disruptive urinary symptoms.
At Rad-Vasc Medical, we focus on identifying the severity and underlying causes of prostate enlargement to provide effective, long-term relief while avoiding invasive surgical procedures.
Our team uses advanced imaging and interventional radiology techniques to accurately diagnose and treat BPH with precision.
We specialize in cutting-edge, outpatient procedures that replace traditional invasive surgeries with image-guided interventions for non-surgical enlarged prostate relief:
Targeted Reduction: Reducing blood flow to the specific arteries supplying the prostate, causing the gland to shrink naturally and permanently.
Minimally Invasive: Performed through a tiny catheter, requiring no general anesthesia and avoiding the side effects associated with traditional surgery.
Rapid Recovery: Most patients return to their normal daily activities within 24 to 48 hours with significant improvement in urinary flow.
At Rad-Vasc Medical, we follow a patient-centered clinical model to ensure safety and superior outcomes:
01
A comprehensive review of your symptoms and medical history to determine if you are a candidate for non-surgical urinary retention relief
02
Utilizing high-definition diagnostics, such as MRI or angiography, to identify the precise blood supply to the prostate gland and ensure technical success.
03
Treatments are performed in our state-of-the-art NYC facilities, typically taking less than 2 hours and allowing patients to return home the same day
04
Patients can return home shortly after the procedure. Most resume light activities within 48 hours, with scheduled follow-ups to monitor the reduction in prostate size and symptom relief.
Urinary issues can severely impact your sleep and independence. We recommend a clinical evaluation at our NYC facilities if you experience:

Waking up four times a night to urinate was destroying my sleep. Dr. Boktor's team performed PAE at the Brooklyn location and within weeks the symptoms started improving. Now I'm sleeping through the night again. Excellent professional care.
I wanted to avoid the side effects of traditional prostate surgery. The PAE procedure at the Rego Park clinic was minimally invasive and effective. My urinary flow has improved significantly and I'm back to my normal Queens routine quickly.
BPH had me planning my day around bathrooms. The team at Rego Park took the time to explain the procedure, answer my wife's questions, and made me feel like a person, not a number. Three months out and the difference is remarkable.
I was hesitant about any prostate procedure but the PAE was truly minimally invasive. Same-day discharge, no general anesthesia, and the results have been excellent. The Brooklyn office staff was top-notch from intake to follow-up.

PAE has a high success rate, with most patients experiencing significant improvement in urinary symptoms. Studies show symptom relief in about 80–90% of cases. It is especially effective for men with enlarged prostates. Results may continue improving over several months.
The procedure typically takes between 1 to 2 hours depending on the complexity. It is performed using imaging guidance through a small catheter. PAE is done on an outpatient basis in most cases. Patients usually go home the same day.
PAE is considered a low-risk, minimally invasive procedure. Complications are uncommon but may include mild pain, bruising, or temporary urinary symptoms. Serious risks are rare when performed by an experienced specialist. Overall, it is safer than many surgical alternatives.
After PAE, the blood supply to the prostate is reduced, causing it to shrink over time. This helps relieve pressure on the bladder and improves urine flow. Symptom relief is gradual and continues over weeks to months. The prostate is not removed, just reduced in size.
Men with certain artery conditions, severe atherosclerosis, or prostate cancer may not be ideal candidates. Those with very small prostates may also not benefit as much. A detailed evaluation is needed to determine eligibility. A specialist will recommend the best treatment option.
