Cognitive MRI-TRUS fusion-targeted prostate biopsy according to PI-RADS classification in patients with prior negative systematic biopsy results.
Journal of the Chinese Medical Association : JCMA 2016 November
BACKGROUND: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the prostate cancer yield rate of targeted transrectal ultrasound (TRUS)-guided biopsy with cognitive magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) registration without concurrent systematic biopsy in patients with previous negative systematic TRUS-guided biopsy results and persistently elevated prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels.
METHODS: In this prospective study conducted from August 2013 to January 2015, patients with at least one previous negative systematic TRUS-guided biopsy and persistently high PSA (≥4 ng/mL) levels were referred for multiparametric MRI (mpMRI). Those patients with suspicious findings on mpMRI received a subsequent cognitive MRI-TRUS fusion biopsy. The cancer-detection rate, tumor location, and Gleason score were confirmed, and PSA-related data were compared between cancer-yield and noncancer-yield groups.
RESULTS: In total, 48 patients were included in this study. MRI was designated to be four and five in 17 patients. Fifteen patients received a cognitive fusion-targeted biopsy, and prostate cancers were detected in 10 patients. The cancer-detection rate was 20.8% (10/48), and the positive-predictive value of MRI was 66.7%. No significant differences were observed in the PSA level, PSA velocity, or transitional zone volume between the cancer-yield and noncancer-yield groups; however, the corresponding difference in PSA transitional zone density was significant (p=0.025).
CONCLUSION: Cognitive MRI-TRUS fusion-targeted biopsy without concurrent systematic biopsy can detect significant prostate cancer in patients with previous negative systematic biopsy results and persistently elevated PSA levels. Noncancer-yield patients should undergo active surveillance and further follow-ups.
