Frequently Asked Questions

A prostate biopsy is a medical procedure in which a sample of tissue from the prostate gland is collected for examination under a microscope by a pathologist.
Prostate biopsies are recommended when there are concerns about prostate cancer based on symptoms, digital rectal exams (DRE), elevated prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels or if the MRI of the prostate reveals a doubtful lesion.
Prostate biopsies can be performed transrectally (TRUS) or transperineally under USG guidance. Newer machines with MRI fusion technology are also available, which fuse MR images with USG during biopsy.
Most patients experience some discomfort during a prostate biopsy, but it is generally tolerable as local anaesthesia is given before the procedure. Oral painkillers are prescribed post the procedure, which usually suffice.
Risks include infection, bleeding, urinary difficulties, urinary retention, and temporary discomfort. Serious complications such as sepsis and prolonged bleeding in urine are rare.
Yes, a biopsy may miss cancer if the cancerous tissue is not sampled during the procedure. Multiple samples may be taken to improve accuracy.
Elevated PSA levels alone can be a reason for a biopsy, as DRE may not detect some prostate cancers.
PSA testing is typically done before a biopsy to assess the need for the procedure, but it is not an absolute requirement.
A saturation biopsy involves taking a larger number of prostate tissue samples and is used when there is a high suspicion of cancer despite negative prior biopsies.
It is rare, but theoretically possible, that a patient develops urinary incontinence or erectile dysfunction following a biopsy.
MRI imaging and PSA density calculations can provide additional information, but biopsy remains the gold standard for diagnosis.
A biopsy may be repeated periodically to monitor the progression of prostate cancer and determine if treatment is necessary, especially for patients who are on Active Surveillance for low-risk prostate cancers.
While there is a risk of infection, sepsis is a rare but known complication of prostate biopsy.
Prior biopsy history does not significantly increase the risk of complications in subsequent biopsies.
Local anaesthesia is typically used to numb the prostate area during a biopsy. General anaesthesia is rarely necessary for anxious patients.
The procedure involves a rectal ultrasound (TRUS) or MRI-guided needle biopsy, with samples collected from various areas of the prostate.
Prostate biopsies can be performed with precautions in patients with bleeding disorders, and healthcare providers may adjust medications as needed. AnticoagulantS need to be stopped before the procedure.
Ongoing research focuses on improving biopsy accuracy and reducing the risk of complications, including sepsis.
Yes, a biopsy can identify benign conditions such as prostatitis or benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).
Family history is considered when evaluating the need for a biopsy, as genetic factors can increase the risk of prostate cancer. Just a positive family history in itself is not an indication of a biopsy.
Some patients may experience anxiety or emotional challenges related to prostate biopsy, and support is available, but this is not common.
Yes, the results of a prostate biopsy help determine the appropriate treatment plan, such as active surveillance or radical therapy in the form of radiation therapy or surgery.
Prostate biopsy history is not linked to complications in future pregnancies or unrelated medical conditions.
Yes, urinary tract infections can occur after a prostate biopsy, but they are usually treatable with antibiotics.
Age alone is not a determining factor; candidacy for a prostate biopsy depends on individual health and the need for diagnosis.
