Did anybody do it in Thailand?

Do you know any hospital/doctor doing this procedure?

Any idea of price?

procedure described here http://www.issm.info/sexual-health-qa/what-is-prostatic-artery-embolization-pae-for-bph/

 

I am not aware of anyplace doing this yet in Thailand. It is available in India.

 

The technique is very new and not yet recommended , more research is needed. See https://www.bmj.com/content/361/bmj.k2338

Initial  research findings are that while it has fewer adverse effects than surgery it is also less effective; as many as a third of patients do nto improve at all.  Research is still underway to compare its results to surgery and also to get a better handle on which patients are most likely to benefit from it.

 

With this or any other new approach, you really don't want to be among the first few procedures performed at a facility. There is a learning curve. So even when it is first done here I wouldn't recommend rushing to get it right way.

 

Both this and conventional TURP are  reserved for patients in whom conservative treatment (medications) has failed.

 

Thanks for this answer full of wisdom,Sheryl.I am on the second medication now.First one stopped to work after 5 years.Second begin to have less effect after 1 year.

Cost in Belgium about 900 euro.(social security intervenes).Statistics I have say 85% success

Will follow your advice and wait till next year to enquire further in Belgium after they have more experience
