The Journal of Urology, 09/28/09
Haarer CF et al. – Cancer identified in transition zone directed needle biopsy cores was not from the transition zone or did not reflect a dominant transition zone lesion in almost 80% of cases. Cancer identified in a left or right transition zone directed needle biopsy did not predict ipsilateral transition zone cancer in almost 50% of cases. These findings suggest that such biopsies do not adequately characterize transition zone tumors. Thus, care should be taken in their interpretation.
