Magnetic Resonance Imaging Guided Prostate Biopsy in Patients with ≥ One Negative Systematic Transrectal Ultrasound-Guided Biopsy: A Systemic Review and Meta-Analysis

摘要

The present study aimed to compare prostate cancer (PCa) and clinically significant PCa (csPCa) detection sensitivity between magnetic resonance imaging guided-biopsy (MRI-GB) and transrectal ultrasound-guided biopsy (TRUS-GB) in patients with >= 1 negative TRUS-GB, and to explore the additive value of TRUS-GB to MRI-GB. The meta-analysis of 18 studies demonstrated that MRI-GB had a similar sensitivity for PCa detection but a higher sensitivity for csPCa than TRUS-GB. In conclusion, there was limited value in combining TRUS-GB with MRI-GB compared with MRI-GB alone for csPCa detection in patients with one or more negative TRUS-GBs that were suspicious of having PCa.
