Palmdale, CA – August, 2024 – Alliance Vascular, a premier provider of advanced vascular and interventional radiology services in the Antelope Valley, is excited to announce the addition of Prostate Artery Embolization (PAE) to its expanding range of minimally invasive treatments. This innovative procedure offers a groundbreaking alternative to traditional prostate surgery for patients suffering from benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), commonly known as an enlarged prostate. Serving the Greater Antelope Valley area from its state-of-the-art facility in Palmdale, Alliance Vascular is committed to offering cutting-edge solutions that enhance patient care and outcomes.

Benign prostatic hyperplasia is a common condition affecting millions of men, particularly those over the age of 50. The condition is characterized by the non-cancerous enlargement of the prostate gland, which can lead to uncomfortable and often debilitating urinary symptoms. These symptoms include frequent urination, difficulty starting and stopping urination, weak urine flow, and the sensation of incomplete bladder emptying. In severe cases, BPH can lead to urinary tract infections, bladder stones, and kidney damage.

Traditional treatment options for BPH range from medications to surgical procedures such as transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) and prostatectomy. While effective, these surgical options often come with significant risks, including sexual dysfunction, bleeding, infection, and prolonged recovery times. For many patients, the prospect of surgery is daunting, leading them to seek less invasive alternatives.

Prostate Artery Embolization is a revolutionary procedure that offers a minimally invasive solution for BPH. Unlike traditional surgery, PAE is performed using advanced imaging techniques to guide the delivery of tiny particles into the arteries that supply blood to the prostate. These particles block the blood flow, causing the prostate to shrink and relieving the urinary symptoms associated with BPH. The procedure is performed on an outpatient basis, requires only a tiny incision, and patients typically experience a much faster recovery time compared to traditional surgery.

"We are proud to introduce Prostate Artery Embolization at Alliance Vascular as part of our ongoing commitment to providing the most advanced and effective treatments for our patients," said Dr. Jilbert Eradat, medical director of Alliance Vascular. "PAE represents a significant advancement in the treatment of BPH, offering patients a less invasive option with fewer risks and a quicker return to their normal activities."

The addition of PAE to Alliance Vascular’s service offerings reflects the practice’s dedication to staying at the forefront of medical innovation. Dr. Eradat and his team are highly skilled in performing this procedure, utilizing the latest technology and techniques to ensure optimal outcomes for their patients. The practice’s patient-centered approach ensures that each individual receives personalized care tailored to their specific needs and circumstances.

PAE is particularly beneficial for patients who are not candidates for traditional prostate surgery due to age, medical conditions, or personal preference. It is also an excellent option for those who have not responded well to medications or who wish to avoid the side effects and complications associated with surgery, specifically sexual side effects, including retrograde ejaculation or impotence. The procedure is performed under moderate sedation, and patients can return home the same day, resuming normal activities within a few days.

"We understand that the decision to undergo treatment for BPH can be challenging, and our goal is to provide our patients with options that best suit their lifestyle and health goals," Dr. Eradat added. "With Prostate Artery Embolization, we are able to offer a safe, effective, and minimally invasive alternative to surgery, allowing our patients to achieve relief from their symptoms with minimal disruption to their lives."

Alliance Vascular’s modern facility in Palmdale is equipped with the latest imaging technology, ensuring that the PAE procedure is performed with the highest level of precision and safety. The practice’s reputation for excellence extends throughout the Antelope Valley area, where they have become known for their expertise in minimally invasive vascular and interventional radiology treatments.
