Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to compare the technical success rate, the selectivity of transarterial chemoembolisation (TACE), the complication rate, the radiation dose given to the patients and the hospitalization stay between TACE performed using femoral artery approach (FAA) and TACE performed using radial artery approach (RAA) in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). METHODS Between June 2020 and April 2022, 49 patients with HCC who underwent 116 TACEs (75 using FAA and 41 using RAA) were included. Differences in technical success rate, selectivity of micro-catheterization, radiation dose given to the patients, fluoroscopy time, hospitalization stay duration, and complication rate were compared between FAA and RAA using Fisher exact or Student t tests. RESULTS No differences in technical success rates were found between RAA (93%; 39/41 TACEs) and FAA (100%; 75/75 TACEs) (P = .12). There were no differences between the two groups in terms of selectivity of catheterization, radiation dose, fluoroscopy time and hospitalization stay duration. Five patients had Grade 2 complications (hematoma) after FAA vs. one patient with one Grade 1 complication (radial artery occlusion) after RAA (5/75 [7%] vs. 1/41 [2%], respectively; P = .42). No major arterial access site complications occurred with FAA or RAA. CONCLUSIONS This study confirms that RAA is a safe approach that does not compromise the technical efficacy and the selectivity of TACE compared to FAA in patients with HCC.

Yeh SD, Weng YS, Lin CY. Prostate Artery Embolization via Distal Transradial Artery Access in a 100-Year-Old Patient. J Pers Med 2023; 14:11. [PMID: 38276225 PMCID: PMC10817478 DOI: 10.3390/jpm14010011] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/06/2023] [Revised: 12/06/2023] [Accepted: 12/19/2023] [Indexed: 01/27/2024] Open
Abstract
Benign prostatic obstruction (BPH) is a common disease in males and surgical treatment is the gold standard for this symptomatic disease. Prostate artery embolization (PAE) is one of the emerging therapies which aims to minimize the lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) of BPH and the volume of enlarged prostates. We reported here a case of 100-year-old man with 90 cm3 prostate and severe symptoms secondary to BPH, who underwent a successful PAE through distal transradial access without any complications. The patient was satisfied with this treatment and no symptoms recurred after PAE. This demonstrated that PAE was a safe and effective treatment for BPH and was recommended for elderly/non-surgical candidates.

Angiographic Imaging of Prostatic Artery Origin in a Greek Population and Correlation With Technical and Clinical Aspects of Prostatic Artery Embolization. Cureus 2023; 15:e45941.

Abstract
Background This study aimed, first, to angiographically investigate and analyze prostatic artery (PA) origin in a Greek male population with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) treated with prostatic artery embolization (PAE) and, second, to correlate prostatic arterial anatomy with technical and clinical aspects of PAE. Methodology This was a retrospective study of BPH patients who underwent PAE in a single tertiary center in Greece from June 2019 to July 2022. For the first part of the study, PA was imaged with computed tomography angiography (CTA) before PAE and with digital subtraction angiography (DSA) during PAE in all patients. A widely accepted system for the classification of PA origin was applied. Type I, a common origin of PA and superior vesical artery (SVA) from the anterior division of internal iliac artery (IIA). Type II, PA originating from the anterior division of IIA, separate from, and inferior to SVA. Type III, the origin of PA from the obturator artery. Type IV, the origin of PA from the internal pudendal artery. Type V, rarer origins of PA. For the second part of the study, a subgroup of patients from the first part (treated with the same PAE protocol and free of vascular pathology that could have interfered with the technical success of PAE) was selected. In this subgroup, differences in PA origin were correlated with technical aspects (feasibility of catheterization of PA, fluoroscopy time (FT), dose area product (DAP)) and clinical outcomes of PAE. Results After the exclusion of four patients, 159 patients were included in the first part of the study. From a total of 355 PAs, 110 (31%) were compatible with type I, 58 (16.3%) type II, 45 (12.7%) type III, 110 (31%) type IV, and 32 (9%) type V. PA origin from an accessory internal pudendal artery was the most common among the rare origins of type V. Regarding the second part of the study (a subgroup of 101 patients selected to facilitate comparisons between the different types of PA origin), type I was associated with significantly more incidences of failed or difficult catheterization of the PA compared to all other types combined (27/64 vs. 18/138, p < 0.001). Types III, IV, and V showed a relatively low degree of technical difficulty. Patients with type I PA origin of at least one pelvic side (subgroup (I), n = 48) had significantly longer FT and DAP compared to the rest (subgroup (O), n = 53). Clinical success rates of PAE were slightly lower for the subgroup (I), although the difference was not statistically significant (75.8% vs. 83.8% at 18 months post-PAE, p = 0.137). No major complications were observed. Conclusions This is the first study of PA origin in Greece. It was demonstrated that types I and IV of PA origin were the most common and had the same prevalence. Type I showed significantly higher technical difficulty compared to the others, but had no significant impact on the clinical outcomes of PAE.

Middle meningeal artery embolization using cone-beam computed tomography augmented guidance in patients with cancer. Diagn Interv Imaging 2023; 104:368-372. [PMID: 36973119 PMCID: PMC10625426 DOI: 10.1016/j.diii.2023.03.007] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/14/2023] [Revised: 03/14/2023] [Accepted: 03/15/2023] [Indexed: 03/29/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of middle meningeal artery embolization (MMAE) performed under cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) augmented guidance in patients with cancer. MATERIALS AND METHODS Eleven patients with cancer (seven women, four men; median age, 75 years; age range: 42-87 years) who underwent 17 MMAEs under CBCT with a combination of particles and coils for chronic subdural hematoma (SDH) (n = 6), postoperative SDH (n = 3), or preoperative embolization of meningeal tumor (n = 2) from 2022 to 2023 were included. Technical success, fluoroscopy time (FT), reference dose (RD), kerma area product (KAP) were analyzed. Adverse events and outcomes were recorded. RESULTS The technical success rate was 100% (17/17). Median MMAE procedure duration was 82 min (interquartile range [IQR]: 70, 95; range: 63-108 min). The median FT was 24 min (IQR: 15, 48; range: 21.5-37.5 min); the median RD was 364 mGy (IQR: 37, 684; range: 131.5-444.5 mGy); and the median KAP was 46.4 Gy.cm2 (9.6, 104.5; range: 30.2-56.6 Gy.cm2). No further interventions were needed. The adverse event rate was 9% (1/11), with one pseudoaneurysm at the puncture site in a patient with thrombocytopenia, which was treated by stenting. The median follow-up was 48 days (IQR; 14, 251; range: 18.5-91 days]. SDH reduced in 11 of 15 SDHs (73%) as evidenced by follow-up imaging, with a size reduction greater than 50% in 10/15 SDHs (67%) . CONCLUSION MMAE under CBCT is a highly effective treatment option, but appropriate patient selection and careful consideration of potential risks and benefits is important for optimal patient outcomes.

Efficacy and safety of prostate artery embolization for patients with lower urinary tract symptoms and indwelling urinary catheter: A retrospective multicenter study. Diagn Interv Imaging 2022; 103:601-606.

Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of this multicenter study was to evaluate the clinical success at three months of prostate artery embolization (PAE), assess PAE safety in centers with various experiences and identify factors associated with PAE success. PATIENTS AND METHODS This multicenter, retrospective study included patients who underwent PAE for lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) including those with indwelling urinary catheter. PAE clinical success was defined as either 25% improvement of the International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) or 1-point improvement of quality of life (QoL) score, or catheter removal at three months. Multivariable analyses were performed using a logistic regression adjusted on patient variables, technical parameters and center experience in PAE. RESULTS A total of 383 men (mean age, 68.4 ± 9.7 [standard deviation] years; range: 46-94) with LUTS, including 99 (25.8%) patients with indwelling urinary catheter, were included in seven centers from January 2017 to March 2019. Five patients reported major complications (1.3%), three (0.8%) penile ulceration, three (0.8%) acute urinary retention, one (0.3%) prostatic abscess, and 56 (14.6%) minor complications. Follow up data were available for 271 patients (center 1: n = 159; other centers: n = 112). Clinical success was reported in 232 patients (85.6%). In multivariable analyses, presence of cardiovascular comorbidities (diabetes, stroke history, myocardial infarction and lower limb artery disease) was the single independent variable inversely associated with PAE clinical success (odds ratio = 0.396; 95% confidence interval: 0.17-0.91; P = 0.029). There was no center effect. CONCLUSION Our results show that PAE is safe and effective in centers with various PAE experiences. Cardiovascular comorbidity is the single independent variable associated with PAE failure.
