Transperineal Prostate biopsies (TPBx) are usually performed under general anesthesia without image fusion. This study aimed to evaluate prostate cancer (Pca) detection rates (CDR), pain, and adverse events using a novel, free-hand TPBx technique, based on elastic fusion of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and transrectal ultrasound (TRUS) under local anesthesia.
This multicenter retrospective study included all consecutive patients scheduled for a TPBx. All had clinical suspicion of Pca, active surveillance scheduled for a re-biopsy, or suspicion of local recurrence after previous treatment. Bi-parametric or multiparametric MRI was performed in all patients and classified as positive in the case of Prostate Imaging-Reporting and Data System (PIRADS) suspicion ≥3. At least 1 targeted TPBx was realized from each PIRADS ≥3 index lesion. Six to 12 systematic random TPBx were done in patients with negative MRI. All biopsies were performed under local anesthesia in an outpatient clinic with MRI-TRUS fusion and the 3D navigation system Trinity Perine (Koelis, France). Any- and clinically significant Pca (csPca) (ISUP gr. ≥2) was recorded. Biopsy-related pain and adverse events were reported according to a visual analogue score of 0-10.
In total, 377 patients were included for analyses. The mean age was 67 years (95% Confidence Interval: 66-68) and the median prostate-specific antigen was 7.2 ng/ml (interquartile range [IQR] 4.8-11.0). MRI was negative in 6% and positive in 94%. The median MRI prostate volume was 43 ml (IQR 31-60) and the median MRI index tumor volume was 0.9 ml (IQR 0.5-2.1). The median number of TPBx was 4 (IQR 3-4). The overall detection of any- and csPca was 64% and 52%, respectively. The overall CDR according to PIRADS 3, 4, and 5 was 30%, 70%, and 94%, respectively. In patients with negative MRI, any- and csPca was detected in 23% and 9%, respectively. The median visual analogue score score was 2 (IQR 1-3, range 0-7). Two patients (0.5%) developed postbiopsy infection, of which one developed urosepsis. Treatment requiring haematuria or urinary retention did not occur.
Free-hand MRI/TRUS fusion-guided and systematic random TPBx in LA is a feasible, safe, and well-tolerated technique for diagnosing Pca.
经会阴前列腺活检(TPBx)通常在全身麻醉下进行,而不进行图像融合。本研究旨在评估一种新的、徒手 TPBx 技术的前列腺癌(Pca)检出率(CDR)、疼痛和不良事件,该技术基于局部麻醉下磁共振成像(MRI)和经直肠超声(TRUS)的弹性融合。
这是一项多中心回顾性研究,纳入了所有计划进行 TPBx 的连续患者。所有患者均有 Pca 的临床可疑症状、主动监测计划进行再次活检、或怀疑既往治疗后局部复发。所有患者均进行双参数或多参数 MRI 检查,前列腺影像报告和数据系统(PIRADS)可疑度≥3 时诊断为阳性。从每个 PIRADS≥3 指数病变中至少进行一次靶向 TPBx。MRI 阴性的患者进行 6-12 次系统随机 TPBx。所有活检均在门诊进行,采用 MRI-TRUS 融合和 Trinity Perine(Koelis,法国)3D 导航系统进行。记录任何有意义的和临床显著的前列腺癌(csPca)(国际泌尿病理学会分级≥2)。根据视觉模拟评分(0-10)报告活检相关疼痛和不良事件。
共纳入 377 例患者进行分析。平均年龄为 67 岁(95%置信区间:66-68),中位前列腺特异性抗原为 7.2ng/ml(四分位距[IQR]:4.8-11.0)。MRI 阴性率为 6%,阳性率为 94%。MRI 前列腺体积中位数为 43ml(IQR:31-60),MRI 指数肿瘤体积中位数为 0.9ml(IQR:0.5-2.1)。TPBx 中位数为 4 次(IQR:3-4)。总检出任何有意义的和 csPca 的比例分别为 64%和 52%。根据 PIRADS 3、4 和 5,总的检出率分别为 30%、70%和 94%。MRI 阴性的患者中,任何有意义的和 csPca 的检出率分别为 23%和 9%。中位数视觉模拟评分(VAS)为 2(IQR:1-3,范围:0-7)。2 名患者(0.5%)发生活检后感染,其中 1 例发生脓毒症。未发生血尿或尿潴留需要治疗的情况。
LA 下自由手 MRI/TRUS 融合引导和系统随机 TPBx 是一种可行、安全且耐受良好的诊断 Pca 技术。
