The application of a targeted periprostatic nerve block in transperineal template-guided prostate biopsies

Abstract: Background: Our study aims to evaluate the anesthetic efficacy of multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging/transrectal ultrasound (mpMRI/TRUS) fusion-guided targeted periprostatic nerve block (PNB) for transperineal template-guided prostate biopsy (TTPB). Methods:The patients who underwent mpMRI/TRUS fusion-guided prostate biopsy from May 2018 to March 2019 were randomized into two groups using a random number table. The intervention group (n=47) and the control group (n=45) received targeted PNB and traditi… Show more

“…The patients felt almost no pain 30 minutes after biopsy. This was similar to the analgesic effect we achieved previously using targeted periprostatic nerve block anaesthesia in targeted biopsy (24). Hence, under the premise of obtaining a good analgesic effect, this method of anesthesia not only shortened the duration of anesthesia and reduced the time of anesthesia operation but also reduced the dose of anesthetic required.…”

“…Guided by MRI, a targeted prostate biopsy can be performed. An mpMRI/TRUS biopsy combines the advantages of the high sensitivity and specificity of the MRI lesion display and the real-time display and flexibility of TRUS, which, to a certain extent, makes up for the deficiency of targeted biopsy guided by MRI in real time (7,11). The equipment does not need to be changed and patients do not need to change position.…”

“…The apex PNB blocks the somatic nerve in the apex of the prostate, one of the most painful areas during biopsy 9 . The apex PNB is usually performed before local transperineal biopsy 10 , 11 . As the location of the target lesion in FBx is different from that in SBx, pain intensity in SBx should be predicted according to the biopsy site, and the optimal local anaesthesia method for FBx should be used.…”
