Objective:To investigate the safety and efficacy of individualized transperineal prostate biopsy based on the segmentation of PI-RADS v2 for mpMRI.Method:The clinical data of patients undergoing prostate biopsy in Beijing Friendship Hospital from December 2018 to November 2021 were analyzed retrospectively . A total of 228 patients with a median age of 65(49-83)years underwent biopsy. There were 102(44.7%) with tPSA <10 ng / ml, 108(47.4%) with tPSA 10-20 ng /ml, and 18(7.9%) with tPSA >20 ng /ml, with the median tPSA of 9.87(4.1-89.0)ng /ml. There were 42(18.4%) cases without MRI results, and 32(14.0%)cases with PI-RADS score of 1-2, 47(20.6%)cases of PI-RADS 3, 66(28.9%)cases of PI-RADS 4 and 41(18.1%)cases of PI-RADS 5, respectively.Transrectal ultrasound-guided transperineal prostate targeted biopsy (TB) and systematic biopsy (SB) were performed under local anesthesia or intravenous anesthesia. SB was performed for those without MRI and PI-RADS score of 1-2 (SB group), and TB and SB were performed for those with PI-RADS score of 3-5 (TB+ SB group). Prostate image under ultrasound was cognitively fused according to PI-RADS v2. One needle per area was distributed in 10 areas of each layer(the transition zone anterior and posterior sectors, the peripheral zone anterior, lateral, and medial sectors or central zone in left and right lobe). For those whose prostate length was less than 3cm, 10 needles were punctured, and two needles were added to each lateral lobe of the apex with a total of 14 needles. For those whose prostate length was from 3 to 6 cm, selected two layers with a total of 20 needles. For those with a length greater than 6cm, selected three layers with a total of 30 needles. If there was a suspicious lesion with PI-RADS score of 3-5, two needles were targeted for each lesion.The detection rate and complication rate of prostate cancer and clinically significant prostate cancer (csPCa) in the overall samples were observed, and the difference of the detection rate of prostate cancer and csPCa between the two groups was compared.Results:Of the 228 cases, there were 46 cases undergoing biopsy of one layer, 148 cases of two layers, and 34 cases of three layers, detecting 131 prostate cancer (PCa) diagnosed by pathology, with a detection rate of 57.5%, including 40 cases (17.5%)of clinically insignificant PCa and 91 cases(39.9%)of csPCa. The detection rate of PCa in TB+ SB group was 61.0%(94/154), which was higher than that in SB group, but there was no significant difference ( P=0.114). However, the detection rate of csPCa in TB + SB group was higher than that in SB group, which was 46.8%(72/154)vs. 25.6%(19/74), respectively ( P=0.002). In the combined TB and SB group (TB + SB group), the detection rate of csPCa by TB was 44.8% (69/154), which was higher than that of 33.8%(52/154)by SB( P=0.047). In the TB+ SB group, 7(4.5%) PCa were missed by SB, which was less than 18 cases (11.7%) missed by TB( P=0.022), but csPCa were missed by SB more than that missed by TB( P<0.001). There were 37 cases suffered from complications, with Clavien Dindo classification grade 1 of 29 cases (12.7%), grade 2 of 7 cases (3.1%), and grade 3 of 1 case(0.4%). Conclusions:Individualized transperineal prostate biopsy based on the segmentation of PI-RADS v2 for mpMRI is safe and reliable. Target biopsy by cognitive fusion can improve the detection rate of significant PCa. Systematic biopsy is also an important and essential supplement, which can detect prostate cancer missed by TB. Combined TB and SB are the best choice.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of en-bloc Holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (HoLEP) with an early apical mucosa dissection technique for the treatment of benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH).Methods:The clinical data of 215 patients treated with HoLEP for BPH from January 2020 to January 2023 in the Department of Urology, Beijing Friendship Hospital, Capital Medical University were retrospectively analyzed. According to different treatment methods, the patients were divided into study group ( n=112) and control group ( n=103). Patients in the study group were treated by the en-bloc HoLEP with an early apical mucosa dissection technique, while patients in the control group were treated by the classical two or three-lobes HoLEP. The primary endpoints included the rates of urinary incontinence at 1-month, 3-month, and 6-month after surgery in two groups of patients. The secondary endpoints included operative time, hemoglobin decrease, dissected prostate weight, postoperative indwelling catheter time, postoperative hospital stay, and international prostate symptom score (IPSS), quality of life (QoL), Qmax, and postvoid residual urine (PVR) at 3-month and 6-month after surgery. The measurement data were tested by Shapiro-Wilk normality test. The normal distribution of the measurement data were expressed as mean ± standard deviation ( ± s), and independent sample t-test was used for comparison between two groups. Measurement data of skewness distribution were expressed as median (interquartile distance) [ M( Q1, Q3)], and Wilcoxon or Mann-Whitney U test were used for comparison between two groups. The count data in the two groups were compared by the Chi-square test. Results:The incidence of urinary incontinence in the study group was 9.0% (10/112) and 3.6% (4/112) at 1-month and 3-month after surgery, which was significantly lower than those in the control group [18.5% (19/103) and 11.7% (12/103)], and the differences were statistically significant ( P< 0.05). Urinary incontinence in two groups recovered completely 6-month after surgery. The operation time of the study group was (68.74±23.71) min, which was lower than that of the control group [(88.04±25.43) min], and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). There were no significant differences in hemoglobin decrease, dissected prostate weight, postoperative indwelling catheter time, postoperative hospital stay in the two groups ( P> 0.05). The IPSS, QoL, Qmax and PVR of the two groups were significantly improved at 3-month and 6-month after surgery ( P< 0.05), but there was no significant difference between the two groups ( P> 0.05). Conclusion:En-bloc HoLEP with an early apical mucosa dissection technique is safe and reliable in treating BPH, and has advantages over classic HoLEP in terms of short-term urinary continence rates, shortening operation time.
