Sažetak
Purpose: To evaluate prostate cancer detection rates with classical trans-rectal ultrasound- guided systematic 10-core biopsies (SB), targeted biopsies (TB) guided by magnetic resonance (MR)/US fusion imaging and their combination in biopsy- naïve and patients with previously negative prostate biopsies. We compared pathology results after radical prostatectomy with biopsy findings. Methods: Consecutive patients with prostate imaging-reporting and data system lesions grade ≥ 3 submitted to MRI/US-guided TB and subsequent standard 10-core SB between December 2015 and June 2019 were analyzed. Results: Detection rate (TB- or SB-positive) in 563 included patients (192 naïve, 371 with previous biopsies) was 56.7% (67.7% for the first, 50.9% for repeated biopsies). With TB (disregarding SB), the rates were 41.4%, 52.1% and 35.8%, respectively. With SB (disregarding TB), the rates were 49.1%, 63.0% and 41.8%, respectively. Eventually, 118 patients underwent surgery and clinically significant cancer was found in 111 (94.1%) specimens. Of those, 23 (20.7%) would have been missed had we relied upon a negative TB and 14 (12.6%) would have been missed had we relied upon a negative SB, disregarding a positive finding on the alternative biopsy template. Conclusion: SB should not be omitted since TB and SB combination have higher detection rate of clinically relevant prostate cancer than either procedure alone.
