Prostate biopsy is the gold standard procedure for pre-operatively estimating Gleason Score (GS) and cancer volume (CV), which are two important surrogate markers for prostate cancer aggressiveness. Currently, biopsy estimates GS based on architectural patterns of the sampled tissue at the microscopic...
The sextant protocol for ultrasound-guided core biopsies of the prostate underestimates the presence of cancer The aim of this prospective study was to evaluate the sensitivity of the sextant biopsy protocol compared with a more extensive procedure for the detection...

OBJECTIVE To determine if a volume-adjusted increase in the number of biopsy cores could detect more prostate cancers than the standard sextant biopsy alone, without increasing morbidity, and to determine its applicability in Malaysian patients, as a standard sextant biopsy misses 20–25% of prostate...
How reliable is 12-core prostate biopsy procedure in the detection of prostate cancer? INTRODUCTION: Prostate biopsies incur the risk of being false-negative and this risk has not yet been evaluated for 12-core prostate biopsy. We calculated the false-negative rate of 12-core prostate biopsy and...
Several studies suggest that standard 6 core sextant transrectal ultrasound (TRUS) guided biopsies of the prostate provides insufficient material to adequately detect clinically important prostate cancer, and that a larger biopsy cores may improve the cancer detection rate. We performed a prospective rando...

The mean and median number of biopsy cores obtained was 14.4 and 14, respectively. PNI was identified in 105 biopsies (17.5%). We studied the ability of PNI in prostate biopsies to determine the tumor stage in surgical specimens and the relationship of PNI with biochemical recurrence during a...
