RESUMO

ABSTRACT Purpose To analyze the learning curve regarding complication rates of transrectal prostate biopsy (TRPB) versus transperineal prostate biopsy (TPPB), using real time software-based magnetic resonance imaging ultrasound (MRI-US) fusion techniques, along with first year experience of transperineal approach. Materials and Methods retrospective unicentric cohort study at a quaternary care hospital. Medical records of all consecutive patients that underwent TPPB between March 2021 and February 2022, after the introduction of MRI-US fusion device, and those who underwent TRPB throughout the entire years of 2019 and 2020 were analyzed. All complications that occurred as consequences of the procedure were considered. Descriptive statistics, Chi-squared and Fisher tests were used to describe complications and compare the two groups. Results A total of 283 patients were included in the transperineal group and 513 in the transrectal group. The analysis of a learning curve for the transperineal method showed lower complications rates comparing the first six months of TPPB procedures (group 1); The complication rate for TPPB was lower than that of TRPB (55.1% versus 81.9%, respectively; p<0.01). TPPB showed specifically lower rates of hematuria (48.8% versus 66.3%;p<0.001) and rectal bleeding(3.5% versus 18.1%; p<0.001). There were no cases of prostatitis after transperineal biopsies and three cases (0.6%) after transrectal procedures. Conclusions We evidenced the learning curve for performing the transperineal biopsy, with a lower rate of complications for the experienced team, after 142 cases after 6 months of practice. The lower complication rate of TPPB and the absence of infectious prostatitis imply a safer procedure when compared to TRPB.

RESUMO

Introdução: A reconstrução tridimensional coronária com a combinação do ultrassom intracoronário e da angiografia apresenta vantagens em relação à angiotomografia de coronárias. Objetivamos apresentara fase piloto de validação de um novo modelo de reconstrução tridimensional de artérias coronárias. Métodos: Foram utilizados exames de angiografia e ultrassom intracoronário já realizados por indicação clínica em indivíduos com suspeita ou diagnóstico de doença arterial coronária estável. O processamento das imagens, a segmentação e a reconstrução tridimensional foram realizados seguindo metodologia específica. Para fins de caracterização geométrica, foram obtidas as linhas de centro tridimensionais. Resultados: Foram reconstruídos três vasos, sendo duas artérias descendentes anteriores e uma artéria circunflexa. O volume da luz do vaso e a carga de placa global puderam ser visualizados com facilidade com a reconstrução tridimensional. A caracterização geométrica revelou aumento dos valores absolutos do comprimento, tortuosidade, curvatura e torsão, caracterizando uma maior complexidade da linha de centro da luz doente, em relação à linha de centro da membrana elástica externa. Conclusões: Essa nova metodologia, que integrou angiografia convencional e ultrassom intracoronário, aumentou a praticidade das reconstruções, com ganho em acurácia volumétrica do vaso e visualização global de aspectos-chave da doença aterosclerótica, como remodelamento e distribuição da placa.


Background: Coronary three-dimensional reconstruction with the combination of intravascular ultrasound and angiography offers advantages over computed tomography angiography of coronary arteries. The authors aimed to present the pilot phase of the validation of a new model of three-dimensional reconstruction of coronary arteries. Methods: This study used angiography and intravascular ultrasound examinations already performed by clinical indication in individuals with known or suspected stable coronary artery disease. Image processing, segmentation, and three-dimensional reconstruction were conducted following specific methodology. For geometrical characterization purposes, tridimensional center lines were obtained. Results: Three vessels were reconstructed: two left anterior descending arteries and one left circumflex artery. The vessel lumen volume and the overall plaque burden could be easily viewed with threedimensional reconstruction. The geometric characterization revealed increased absolute values of length, tortuosity, curvature, and torsion, featuring a greater complexity of the center line of the diseased lumen relative to the center line of the external elastic membrane. Conclusions: This new methodology, which integrates conventional angiography and intravascular ultrasound, has increased the practicality of the reconstructions, with a gain in volumetric accuracy of the vessel and overall visualization of key aspects of atherosclerotic disease, such as plaque remodeling and distribution.
