EMBOLIZATION AND CHEMOEMBOLIZATION PROSTATIC ARTERIES OF BENIGN PROSTATIC HYPERPLASIA AND PROSTATE CANCER

Abstract

The article gives the results of the use of embolization of prostatic arteries in benign prostatic hyperplasia in 3 patients, two of whom have been with suprapubic drainage of the bladder. The patient was 120 ml without suprapubic drainage of the bladder residual urine. The age of patients was 68 to 70 years. According TRUS, the average prostate volume was 86.0 ± 12.6 cm3 . 4 patients» superselective prostatic artery chemoembolization was performed in prostate cancer. Chemicals for carrying out this procedure served adriamycin at a dose of 50 mg. Two of the four patients with prostate cancer was hormone-resistant form. Three patients had PCa T3b N0M0 stage T2bN0M0 histologically verified number Gleason 7, 7, 8, 9. All four had difficulty urinating, the amount of residual urine was 54 to 98 ml. As a source of transportation used chemotherapy microspheres (gepasfery) size of 300–500 microns. Treatment outcomes assessed at one month. The efficiency of the methods for the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia and prostate cancer in the form of return of spontaneous urination, decrease in residual urine, reducing the prostate-specific antigen.
