Abstract: Objective To analyze the complication rates in 210 patients undergoing transrectal ultrasound-guided 24-core transperineal prostate biopsy.Methods Clinical data of 210 patients who underwent transrectal ultrasound-guided 24-core transperineal prostate biopsy from 2010 to 2012 were collected.A retrospective analysis of complications after prostate biopsy was conducted.Results The main postoperative complications were hematuria,bloody stool,dysuria,urinary retention,fever (＞38℃),urinary infection,vasovagal syncope,and their complication rates were 43.3 ％ (91/210),10.9％ (23/210),23.3％ (49/210),25.2％ (53/210),14.8％ (31/210),21.9％ (46/210),0.48％ (1/210) respectively.In addition,5 patients (2.5％) were hospitalized due to biopsy related complications.Conclusions Transrectal ultrasound guided 24-core transperineal prostate biopsy is an relatively safe and effective puncture method with common minor complications and less severe complications.Adequate attentions should be paid to its complications.
