From: Prostatic arterial embolization for the treatment of lower urinary tract symptoms due to large (>80 mL) benign prostatic hyperplasia: results of midterm follow-up from Chinese population

Figure 1

Prostatic artery arise from the gluteal-pudendal trunk. Images from a patient with significant lower urinary tract symptoms due to benign prostatic hyperplasia (92 mL) underwent bilateral PAE. a. Digital subtraction angiography (DSA) after selective catheterization of the anterior division of the left internal iliac artery with ipsilateral oblique view demonstrated the left prostatic artery (straight arrow) arising from gluteal-pudendal trunk; the curved arrow indicates the left internal pudendal artery; and the asterisk indicates the contrast staining in the left prostate lobe. b. Cone-beam CT image with coronal view after selective catheterization of the anterior division of the left internal iliac artery demonstrates the left prostatic artery (straight arrow) and the left internal pudendal artery (curved arrow). The asterisk indicates the contrast staining in the left prostate lobe.
