Brief Summary
Prostate embolization is an alternative treatment to trans urethral prostate resection in the context of benign prostatic hypertrophy. This embolization treatment is also of interest in patients with chronic anuria surveyed in relation to their prostatic hypertrophy for disundation. This survey causes discomfort and urinary tract infection. It is a population with tortuous arteries, a severe atherosclerotic overload making embolizations complex and long. Often, only unilateral embolization is possible. The purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness in terms of disundation of unilateral vs. bilateral embolization of the prostatic arteries
