Single-center retrospective comparative study of 40–120 μm versus 100-300 μm trisacryl gelatin microspheres as the main embolic agents for prostatic artery embolization
This is the first systematic comparison between the smallest and the second smallest commercially available TGM sizes in the clinical context of PAE. These findings may help guide ongoing research to identify the most appropriate embolic material for PAE.
