Extensive Biopsies and Transurethral Prostate Resection in Men With Previous Negative Biopsies and High or Increasing Prostate Specific Antigen
The Journal of Urology, 09/17/09
Ploussard G et al. – About a fourth of patients with at least 2 extended negative sets of prostate biopsies remain at risk for prostate cancer and most tumors missed on initial procedures are clinically significant. Repeat biopsy using general anesthesia detects three–fourths of these prostate cancers. However, the diagnostic yield of transurethral prostate resection appears significant and may provide additional data of clinical importance in select, informed patients.
