comparison of complications incidence of 8-and 12-core prostate biopsy guided with transrectal ultrasound / 肿瘤研究与临床

ABSTRACT

Objective To compare complications incidence rates of 8-core and 12-core prostate biopsies guided with transrectal ultrasound retrospectively,and to study intervention ways to decrease complications.Methods The data of 260 consecutive patients undergoing first-time transrectal ultrasound-guided biopsy were analyzed.132 patients underwent 8-core biopsy and 128 patients underwent 12-core biopsy.Results In 8-core group,there were 7 cases of infections,15 cases of gross hematuria,7 cases of rectal bleeding and 6 cases of acute urinary retention,and in 12-core group,5 cases of infections,19 cases of gross hematuria,9 cases of rectal bleeding and 7 cases of acute urinary retention in 12-core group.There are no statistical differences of complications incidence rate between two groups (P ＞ 0.05).when prostate volume ＞ 45 ml,detection rate of prostate cancer in 12-core group was significantly higher than that in 8-core group.Conclusions There are no statistical differences of complications incidence rate between 8-and 12-core prostate biopsy.Homologous measure must be taken to reduce complications.12-core prostate biopsy is recommended as prostate volume ＞ 45 ml.
