We present our results of 3 biopsy techniques applied to each of 62 patients with clinically suspicious prostatic nodules. Transrectal digitally guided and sonographically guided transperineal fine needle aspiration biopsies were followed by digitally guided transperineal core biopsy in all cases. Adenocarcinoma was confirmed in 25 patients by 1 or more of these techniques. Our results indicated that 7 of 25 cancer cases (28 per cent) were detected by only 1 of 3 applied methods of biopsy and 56 per cent were detected by all 3 techniques. When a clinical suspicion of malignancy remains after a negative aspiration or core biopsy consideration should be given to alternative forms of biopsy to establish a diagnosis. |
