Over 14 million men in the U.S. live with Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH)—but surgery isn’t the only solution.
Prostate Artery Embolization (PAE) is a minimally invasive procedure that shrinks the prostate by reducing its blood flow, relieving symptoms like frequent urination and disrupted sleep—without surgery or general anesthesia.
At Alliance Vascular in Palmdale, we deliver:
If BPH is affecting your life, PAE can help you feel like yourself again—quickly, safely, and close to home in Antelope Valley.
Using imaging guidance, a small catheter is inserted into the arteries of the wrist or groin supplying the prostate.
Tiny particles are injected to block blood flow to the prostate, causing it to shrink.
The PAE procedure is typically completed in under two hours, and patients can return home the same day.

PAE is proven to be highly effective, with most patients reporting significant improvements in symptoms such as urinary flow, frequency, and quality of life. Studies show that the benefits of PAE are long-lasting, with symptom relief often maintained for several years. Alliance Vascular’s use of advanced imaging and precision techniques ensures the best possible outcomes for our patients.
While PAE is considered safe, all medical procedures carry some risk. Potential side effects of the PAE procedure include:
Severe complications are rare, and our experienced team takes every precaution to minimize risks. We will discuss these possibilities during your consultation to ensure you feel confident and informed.
Insurance for patients diagnosed with BPH often covers PAE treatments, but coverage varies depending on your provider and plan. At Alliance Vascular, our team will work with you to verify your benefits and provide a clear estimate of any out-of-pocket costs before your procedure.
Yes, PAE can be repeated if necessary. However, many patients experience long-term relief after a single procedure. It’s important to have regular follow-ups with your Prostate artery embolization doctor to monitor symptoms and prostate health.
Preparation may include imaging studies like a prostate MRI or pelvic CT angiography to assess prostate size and blood supply. Patients are usually advised to avoid certain medications, such as blood thinners, and to fast for a specified period before the procedure. Specific instructions will be provided during the pre-procedure consultation.
Post-procedure, patients typically have follow-up appointments to monitor recovery and assess symptom improvement. This may include physical examinations, symptom questionnaires, and imaging studies to evaluate prostate size reduction.
PAE (Prostate Artery Embolization) stands out as a minimally invasive alternative to surgery and medication for BPH. Unlike TURP or open prostatectomy, PAE doesn’t require a hospital stay or general anesthesia. Recovery time is just 1–2 days, and the risk of sexual dysfunction is significantly lower. While medications require ongoing use and may come with side effects, PAE offers lasting relief with a single outpatient procedure.
