For ageing men, Health related quality of life ( HRQoL) is challenged by two common issues:
the onset of bothersome urinary symptoms attributable to prostate enlargement and diminishing
ability to maintain normal sexual activity and function; both issues are important to men,
yet often the treatment of the former has adverse effects on the latter. Current medical and
surgical treatments offer symptomatic improvement of urinary symptoms. However long recovery
times, degradation of sexual function and incontinence may negatively affect a patient's QoL.
Prostatic urethral lift (PUL) and prostate artery embolization (PAE) represent two evolving
techniques with contrasting mechanisms of action (mechanical decompression vs angiographic
embolization). Both are minimally invasive, yield relief of urinary symptoms and have similar
safety profiles. More importantly neither causes degradation of sexual function or urinary
continence. Although multiple studies are being reported on PUL and PAE alike, currently
there are no prospective clinical trials comparing these two technologies. We aim to
prospectively evaluate and compare HRQol outcomes of PUL and PAE. Results of this study could
have a great impact on patient outcomes in men opting for minimally invasive, sexual function
sparing treatment options for symptom relief from prostate enlargement.
