Transperineal biopsy prostate cancer detection in first biopsy and repeat biopsy after negative transrectal ultrasound‐guided biopsy: the Victorian Transperineal Biopsy Collaboration experience

Abstract

TPB is an alternative approach to TRUS biopsy of the prostate, offering a high rate of detection of clinically significant prostate cancer. It provides excellent sampling of the anterior region of the prostate, which is often under-sampled using the TRUS approach, and should be considered as an option for all men in whom a prostate biopsy is indicated.
