It shrinks in all directions and therefore puts less pressure on the urethra. Believe me it works well if you have an enlarged prostate. They only found one of my two arteries and I now urinate normally, though I still have to get up 1-3 times during the night. I am also 85 years old and would probably have that problem anyway, even without an enlarged prostate.

PAE sounds like a good procedure and I understand has been arount a long time for treating prostate cancer. What is risk profile? That is my big concern with it if they miss the artery etc?
