Lesion Targeted CT-Guided Transgluteal Prostate Biopsy in Combination With Prebiopsy MRI in Patients Without Rectal Access

Abstract: With prostate and colorectal malignancies being the most common cancers in men, elevated prostate specific antigen (PSA) in patients without rectal access due to prior surgery poses a diagnostic dilemma. We report the first use of CT-guided biopsy in combination with prebiopsy MRI in 2 patients with a clinical suspicion of prostate cancer and no rectal access. In both cases, a diagnostic multiparametric MRI of the prostate was performed to detect and to localize a potential suspicious lesion. The localization … Show more

“…Irrespective of the imaging modality normally prostate biopsy are performed through template grid or robotic-guidance or freehand in three different zones (i) Transgluteal: practiced in patients without rectal access due to prior colorectal surgery [ 2 ]; (ii) Transrectal: needle inserted through the rectal wall thus has a risk of contamination specially when multiple biopsies are taken place. Each needle passage risks spreading rectal bacteria in the blood stream [ 3 ]; (iii) Transperineal: needle inserted through the perineal skin.…”

“…Few studies have described computed tomography (CT)-guided sampling of the prostate, which uses noncontrast CT-guided biopsies with a transgluteal approach. [5][6][7][8][9][10] These studies reported high success rates and excellent safety profiles, with a lack of major complications and very low rates of minor complications.…”

“…Without rectal access, other biopsy approaches, such as transurethral or transperineal ultrasound–guided biopsy, have been used with variable results. Few studies have described computed tomography (CT)–guided sampling of the prostate, which uses noncontrast CT-guided biopsies with a transgluteal approach 5–10 . These studies reported high success rates and excellent safety profiles, with a lack of major complications and very low rates of minor complications.…”
