Abstract:
Objective To assess the safety and efficiency of systematic transperineal ultrasound guided template positioning biopsy for the high-risk population of prostate cancer.Methods From January 2010 to January 2012 a total of 42 high-risk men of prostate cancer underwent systematic ultrasound guided biopsy using the transperineal template positioning technique.All patients got at least one previous biopsy,and all the patients showed negative results,including prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia,and/or atypical small cell acinar proliferation.During the follow-up,all the patients still had high prostate specific antigen (PSA) velocity (> 0.75 μg/L) or high PSA level (> 10 μg/L).Results A mean of 18.7 biopsy cores had been obtained.Cancer was identified in 19 of the 42 men (44%).The mean Gleason score was 6 (from 4 to 9).Mean prostate volume in the positive and negative biopsy groups was 44 and 71 ml.The only significant independent influence factor for positive biopsy was prostate volume (P < 0.05).The positive rate showed no statistic difference in term of presence of PIN,AHH,the number of biopsy sites,or PSA value (P >0.05).Adenocarcinoma was found in transition zone in 14 of 19 cases (74%),and 5 (36%) was positive only in the transition zone.Complications were rare and self-limiting,including hematuria (29%)and urinary retention (0.9%).Conclusions Systematic transperineal template positioning biopsy of the prostate is a safe and precise biopsy technique in patients who remain at high-risk for prostate adenocarcinoma.
