Abstract

Simple prostatectomy (SP) can be utilized for patients with large prostates with lower urinary tract symptoms. Prostate artery embolization (PAE) does not have robust clinical evidence to support its use in treating urinary symptoms; however, it is an effective treatment for refractory hematuria from a prostatic source. There have been limited papers regarding preoperative PAE prior to SP. However, there are no papers regarding the feasibility of delayed SP after PAE. We present, to our knowledge, the first paper demonstrating a successful robot-assisted SP years after a PAE in a patient with a 380g prostate with recurrent refractory gross hematuria.
