Is there anybody out there for whom Venous Leak Embolization worked? Please don't comment if it didn't work for you, or you believe that it doesn't work. There is ample body of posts on that.
Let's see if we can get at least one positive reaction on that. If not, just let the thread die.

Re: Embolization?
I have not had this done, it is too late for me but if it was around when I had ED I would of tried it out first. I have attached a link for a discussion that is taking place on this very subject. I had an enlarged prostate and this was my physician, he performed a PAE on me just over a month ago and it has worked great for me, he had performed over 4000 of these and was the pioneer in the field. Anyway good luck here is the link.

I actually know one prominent Russian surgeon who does this often. He said it has a 60% success rate. He uses it to delay the implant on young guys if it turned out to be a success, and some of them may get VL again at a later age, and he implants them.

Thanks. I just singed up. I'm thinking about doing some prostate work now and am considering Rezum and Laser ablation. Maybe there is a better option, eh?

Re: Embolization?
So far the PAE has worked for me, everyone is different.. if you go with the IR procedure for your venous leak let us know how it turns out..hoping the best.
