Transperineal versus transrectal prostate biopsy in the diagnosis of prostate cancer: a systematic review and meta-analysis

World Journal of Surgical Oncology, 2019
Background Because conventional prostate biopsy has some limitations, optimal variations of prostate biopsy strategies have emerged to improve the diagnosis rate of prostate cancer.

Prostatic abscess with infected aneurysms and spondylodiscitis after transrectal ultrasound-guided prostate biopsy: a case report and literature review

BMC Urology, 2021
Background Transrectal ultrasonography (TRUS)-guided prostate biopsy is the conventional method of diagnosing prostate cancer. TRUS-guided prostate biopsy can occasionally be associated with severe complications.

Transcriptional profiles of circulating tumor cells reflect heterogeneity and treatment resistance in advanced prostate cancer

Journal of Experimental & Clinical Cancer Research
Purpose New biomarkers for the detection and monitoring of aggressive variant prostate cancer (AVPC) including therapy-induced neuroendocrine prostate cancer (NEPC) are urgently needed, as measuring prostate-specific antigen (PSA) is not reliable in ...

Outcomes following negative prostate biopsy for patients with persistent disease after radiotherapy for prostate cancer

International Brazilian Journal of Urology, 2010
PURPOSE: When faced with biochemical recurrence after definitive radiotherapy for prostate cancer, clinicians must determine whether the recurrence is local or systemic. Post radiotherapy prostate biopsies to detect persistent local disease are difficult

Epigenetic reprogramming of lineage switching in cancer

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Cancer cells rarely commit to a single identity. Epigenetic mechanisms and tumor microenvironment cues push epithelial cells toward flexible, hybrid states that can shift into mesenchymal, neuroendocrine, or stem‐like fates, driving metastasis, drug resistance, and tumor heterogeneity. Targeting the epigenetic regulators behind these transitions, using

Prognostic value of a cell cycle progression signature for prostate cancer death in a conservatively managed needle biopsy cohort. [PDF]

, 2012
BACKGROUND: The natural history of prostate cancer is highly variable and it is difficult to predict. We showed previously that a cell cycle progression (CCP) score was a robust predictor of outcome in a conservatively managed cohort diagnosed by ...

Hijacking emergency granulopoiesis: Neutrophil ontogeny and reprogramming in cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Neutrophils are highly plastic innate immune cells; their functions in cancer extend beyond the tumour microenvironment. This Review summarises current understanding of neutrophil maturation and heterogeneity and highlights tumour‐induced granulopoiesis as a systemic programme that expands immature, immunosuppressive neutrophils via tumour‐derived ...

A review of optimal prostate biopsy: indications and techniques

Therapeutic Advances in Urology, 2019
Prostate biopsy is the gold standard diagnostic technique for the detection of prostate cancer. Patient selection for prostate biopsy is complex and is influenced by emerging use of prebiopsy imaging.

Comparison of 6- and 12-Core Prostate Biopsy in Taiwanese Men: Impact of Total Prostate-Specific Antigen, Prostate-Specific Antigen Density and Prostate Volume on Prostate Cancer Detection

, 2011
Introduction: We retrospectively compared 6- and 12-core prostate biopsies in Taiwanese men and evaluated the impact of prostate volume (PV) , prostate-specific antigen (PSA), and PSA density (PSAD) on the prostate cancer detection rate (PCDR).
