Abstract:
Multiparametric MRI (mpMRI) of the prostate is recently becoming more and more utilized in the detection of prostate cancer. Studies have shown that a higher PIRADS score correlated to a higher chance of obtaining a clinically significant prostate cancer but few studies have correlated PIRADS score to a specific Gleason score.
OBJECTIVE:This study aimed to determine the concordance of PIRADS score to the Gleason score result of MRI ultrasound fusion-guided prostate biopsy.
METHODS:All patients who had at least a PIRADS 2 lesion on mpMRI and underwent MRI ultrasound fusion-guided biopsy of the prostate from August 2018 up to November 2019 at St. Luke’s Medical Center, Global City were included in the study. An ambispective collection of data was done until the ideal sample size of greater than 100 positive lesions was obtained, in order to derive concordance rate.
RESULTS:One hundred and sixty-two patients were included in the study with a total of 212 lesions analyzed. Forty three percent were benign while 57% were found to be malignant. PIRADS 2 lesions had zero high grade cancers, and the percentage steadily increased with 37.8% of PIRADS lesions considered high grade. Concordance was computed to be 0.38 showing a fair, direct concordance between PIRADS and Gleason score with significant result (p<0.05).
CONCLUSION:A result of PIRADS 4 or 5 lesion on mpMRI will have a higher urgency of doing a prostate biopsy and subsequent management to prevent unfavorable outcomes as opposed to PIRADS 3 lesions.
