Aim of this study was to evaluate if saturation biopsy (SB) technique increases the cancer detection rate in patients with PSA < 10 ng/ml, after a first negative biopsy.
From January 2004 to January 2006, 780 patients underwent prostate ultrasound guided transrectal (UGT) core biopsy: 186 (23.8%) presented prostate cancer (PCa) while 594 pts (76.2%), were disease free. For 1 year all the patients with no evidence of cancer were observed according to a follow-up schedule including PSA every 3 months and DRE every 6 months. During this period 140 patients showed an increase of PSA (< 10 ng/ml) or a low PSA free/total. This group underwent a second prostate UGT core biopsy with SB technique. In all the patients we evaluated PCa detection rates (DR) according to the PSA range. We also checked peri/post-operative complication rate (total post-operative hospitalization time, haemoglobin loss, catheterisation rate, pain rate, QOL).
Of the 140 patients 50 (35.7%) had PCa showing a Gleason score (GS) of 4 or 5 in 26%, 6 or 7 in 75% and 8 to 10 in 9% respectively. Sectors apical biopsies carried out in the anterior horn of peripheral zone tissue presented over 70% (35 patients) of cancer detection rate. Rectal bleeding was the major common complication. Cancer was clinically significant in 47 patients (94%) but 34 (68%) presented an organ confined disease after radical surgery.
SB technique increases of 35.7% the cancer detection rate (DR) in patients with PSA < 10 ng/ml, after a first negative biopsy, showing a higher positivity (70% PCaDR) if the SB included the anterior horn of peripheral zone tissue. No significantly pain and side effects were observed.
本研究的目的是评估在首次活检为阴性后,饱和活检(SB)技术是否能提高前列腺特异性抗原(PSA)<10 ng/ml患者的癌症检出率。
2004年1月至2006年1月,780例患者接受了前列腺超声引导下经直肠(UGT)穿刺活检:186例(23.8%)患有前列腺癌(PCa),而594例(76.2%)无疾病。对所有无癌症证据的患者进行为期1年的观察,随访计划包括每3个月检测一次PSA,每6个月进行一次直肠指检(DRE)。在此期间,140例患者PSA升高(<10 ng/ml)或游离/总PSA水平较低。该组患者采用SB技术进行了第二次前列腺UGT穿刺活检。我们根据PSA范围评估了所有患者的PCa检出率(DR)。我们还检查了围手术期/术后并发症发生率(术后总住院时间、血红蛋白丢失、导尿率、疼痛率、生活质量)。
140例患者中,50例(35.7%)患有PCa,Gleason评分(GS)为4或5的占26%,6或7的占75%,8至10的占9%。在外周带组织前角进行的尖部活检癌症检出率超过70%(35例患者)。直肠出血是主要的常见并发症。47例(94%)患者的癌症具有临床意义,但34例(68%)患者在根治性手术后表现为器官局限性疾病。
SB技术使首次活检为阴性后PSA<10 ng/ml患者的癌症检出率(DR)提高了35.7%;如果SB包括外周带组织前角,则阳性率更高(70%的PCaDR)。未观察到明显疼痛和副作用。
