Prostatic evaluation by transrectal sonography: criteria for diagnosis of early carcinoma

F Lee, JM Gray, RD McLeary, F Lee Jr, TA McHugh, MH Solomon, GH Kumasaka, WH Straub, GS Borlaza and GP Murphy

Over a 7-month period, from a total of 417 transrectal ultrasound (US) studies, 45 transperineal biopsies of the prostate were performed in the radiology department. Transrectal US guidance and local anesthesia were used. Twenty-two of 32 hypoechoic lesions, located within the peripheral zone tissue of the gland, were proved by histologic study to be cancerous. Hyperechoic lesions were all histologically benign hyperplasias. The patients experienced no major complications necessitating hospitalization or increased length of hospital stay as a result of the procedure.
