Prostate Int 2023; 11:212-217. [PMID: 38196555 PMCID: PMC10772202 DOI: 10.1016/j.prnil.2023.08.002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/20/2023] [Revised: 08/18/2023] [Accepted: 08/28/2023] [Indexed: 01/11/2024] Open
Abstract
Background Prostate cancer in the anterior region may be missed on a transrectal systematic biopsy (SBx). Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the performance of magnetic resonance imaging-transrectal ultrasound (MRI-TRUS) fusion targeted biopsy (TBx) in detecting anterior region cancer in patients with a history of SBxs. Methods Prostate biopsies were performed in 224 patients after multiparametric MRI, among whom 119 patients with prostate imaging reporting and data system (PI-RADS version 2) scores of 3 to 5 underwent MRI-TRUS fusion TBxs. Afterward, cancer detection rates (CDRs) and TBx-positive core regions were compared by categorizing patients into those with or without a history of SBxs. Results Total CDR was 68.8% (44/64 cases) in the initial biopsy group (Initial-Bx group) and 47.3% (26/55 cases) in the previous-negative-systematic biopsy group (Pre-Neg-SBx group) (P = 0.018). Interestingly, both TBx- and SBx-core positive cases were more common in the Initial-Bx group than in the Pre-Neg-SBx group (Initial-Bx group: 75% [33/44 cases] vs. Pre-Neg-SBx group: 42.3% [11/26 cases], P = 0.006). However, only TBx-core positive cases were more common in the Pre-Neg-SBx group than in the Initial-Bx group (Initial-Bx group: 11.4% [5/44 cases] vs. Pre-Neg-SBx group: 30.8% [8/26 cases], P = 0.043). In addition, the proportion of anterior lesions detected by TBx cores was higher in the Pre-Neg-SBx group than in the Initial-Bx group (Initial-Bx group: 26.3% [10/38 cases] vs. Pre-Neg-SBx group: 52.6% [10/19 cases], P = 0.049). Conclusion Using MRI-TRUS fusion TBx in the evaluation of previously negative SBx cases improved the detection rate of anterior lesions, which might have been missed in previous SBxs. Especially in patients with a history of SBxs mpMRI should be performed to screen for anterior lesions.

Abstract
Background To demonstrate the clinical usefulness of prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) positron emission tomography (PET) computerized tomography (CT) for irreversible electroporation (IRE) in prostate cancer patients. Methods From January to May 2021, 17 men were diagnosed with localized prostate cancer through preoperative mpMRI and [18F] florastamin PSMA PET-CT imaging, followed by transperineal MRI-ultrasound fusion-guided biopsy. The patients underwent IRE focal therapy at the target lesions under general anesthesia. To evaluate the treatment outcome, serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels were followed up in the 1st, 3rd, 6th, 9th, 12th months, and mpMRI was taken in the 1st and 12th months, followed by MR fusion biopsy in the 12th month post-IRE. Results The mean age of the patients was 66.1 ± 9.3 with a median PSA of 7.5 ng/ml. After the treatment, PSA nadir was 4.06 ± 3.4, and 11 (64.7%) achieved decline of PSA more than 50% from the baseline. Rate of negative biopsy for prostate cancer is 88% (15/17) at 12 months MR fusion biopsy after the IRE treatment. Among the relapsed cases, 1 (6.9%) patient recurred at margin of treated area, and 1 (6.9%) patient was from outfield recurrence. When excluding initial four patients, none of the patients had cancer recur. Conclusions When treating with IRE focal therapy, PSMA-PET CT is a potentially valuable diagnostic approach for localizing prostate cancer; it supports the detection of lesions with conventional mpMRI, enabling to perform the procedure more completely.

Int J Urol 2023; 30:77-82. [PMID: 36305653 DOI: 10.1111/iju.15064] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/11/2022] [Accepted: 09/19/2022] [Indexed: 01/31/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Postoperative urinary incontinence recovery following robot-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy is an important outcome. We investigated whether factors that affect urinary incontinence can predict the duration of postoperative incontinence recovery. METHODS A total of 310 patients underwent robot-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy. Continence recovery was defined as either pad-free or a safety pad only status. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed on clinical variables to identify those that were associated with continence recovery. A scoring system to predict recovered continence was constructed using statistically significant variables. The validity of this tool was tested in a new cohort of 273 patients. RESULTS Factors associated with recovery of urinary incontinence were membranous urethral length, preservation of bilateral neurovascular bundles, and a preoperative Prostate Imaging Reporting and Data System score of ≥3 in the apex. Age was related only to incontinence recovery at 1 month. To prepare the score, weighting was performed using the estimated values. Using the developed scoring system, participants in the verification set were divided into three groups. The early recovery group had a median incontinence recovery of 4 (4-12) weeks, the medium recovery group, 12 (4-24) weeks, and the late recovery group, 24 (24-48) weeks, which was a significant difference (p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS The applied scoring system based on preoperative factors related to incontinence and derived from patient groups was significantly associated with continence recovery time. In patients undergoing robot-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy, our unit-weighted regression model of clinical variables can predict the duration of continence recovery.
