According to the latest data from the National Cancer Center of China, prostate cancer (PCa) has become the highest incidence tumors of urinary since 2008, and its incidence and mortality has occupied great attention in the past decades. Therefore, the choice of safe and effective diagnostic method, to detect the occurrence of PCa, is necessary. The way of clinical diagnosis mainly includes digital rectal examination, serum PSA, transrectal ultrasound, MRI spectroscopy imaging, and prostate biopsy, ect. Prostate biopsy is the most reliable diagnosis method and agold standardfor the diagnosis of PCa. The systematic use of the prostate biopsy has greatly improved the diagnosis of PCa. However, there are several prostate biopsy scheme and scholars proposed a variety of programs on the choice of puncture point. It has not yet formed a standard method at this stage. In this study, we will review the development of prostate biopsy and the status recent research to explore application value of different method.

Objective To study the reliability of Gleason score by prostate biopsy with prostatic cancer(PCa)in prediction of tumor location and analyse related influencing factors of positive surgical margins after radical prostatectomy.Methods The retrospective study recruited 72 patients with PCa who had been diagnosed by trans rectal ultrasound-guided prostate biopsy,and eventually treated with laparoscopic radical prostatectomy.The correlation of each index were analyzed by statistical software.Results In this study,Kappa test indicated a good agreement that Gleason score between prostate biopsy and radical prostatectomy.Biopsy positive more focused on four peripheral points near the bottom.Biopsy tumor location was not suitable for predicting tumor distribution.Biopsy Gleason score and biopsy positive percentage in biopsy specimen were independent predictors of positive surgical margins.F and L points had good correlation with the positive surgical margins.Conclusion The biopsy Gleason score is a good evidence to pathological grading in patients.These information will lead to positive surgical margins rise possibly:needle biopsy Gleason score exceed 7.25,positive biopsy percentage more than 45% and the location positive biopsy close to prostate apex.
