Global Prostatic Artery Embolization Market- Restraints

Prostatic artery embolization procedure is accompanied with ‘Post-PAE Syndrome’ in patients. In Post-PAE syndrome, patients may experience nausea, pelvic pain, and frequent urination which may refrain them from opting for this treatment option. Moreover, according to U.S National Library of Medicine, prostatic artery embolization procedures involves use of ionization radiation with dose range of approximately 47 mSv, which is roughly equivalent to increase lifetime cancer risk in patient population with average age of 65 in men. These factors are expected to restrain the global prostatic artery embolization market.
