Brief summary
The aim of this study was to compare the pain levels in transrectal ultrasound (TRUS)-guided standard 12-core prostate biopsy (SPB) and multiparametric prostate magnetic resonance imaging (MpMRI)-guided fusion prostate biopsy (FPB).
Detailed description
The study included patients that underwent prostate biopsy under local anesthesia (intrarectal 2% lidocaine gel + periprostatic nerve block) due to suspected prostate cancer. Patients detected with a Prostate Imaging Reporting and Data System score (PIRADS) ≥3 lesion on MpMRI underwent MpMRI-guided FPB (Group I) and the patients who had no suspected lesions or had a PI-RADS \<3 lesion on MpMRI underwent TRUS-guided SPB (Group II). Pain assessment was performed using Visual Analog Scale (VAS) 5 min after the procedure. Following the procedure, the patients were asked to indicate the most painful biopsy step among the three steps (1: insertion of the probe into the rectum, 2: probe manipulation, 3: the piercing of the biopsy needle).
Interventions
TRUS-guided SPB was performed by obtaining 12 core samples in each patient. 6 cores from left and right. the cores labeled as, apex, mid, base, apex far lateral, mid far lateral and base far lateral
FPB was performed by obtaining 10-12 core samples in each patient, followed by the acquisition of 2-4 core samples for each suspected lesion detected on MpMRI (combined biopsy)

Intervention model description
pain levels after standard transrectal prostate 12 core biopsy and MRI -US fusion prostate biopsy were detected and compared in 2 groups.
Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
* Elevated blood prostate specific antigen (PSA) levels according to patients age. PSA \>2ng/ml for whom aged between 50-60, and PSA \>4ng/ml for whom were above 60 years old * Having suspicious digital rectal examination * having multi-parametric prostate MRI before prostate biopsy * Having MRI defined lesions which were PIRADS - 3 -4-5
Exclusion criteria
* PSA \> 50 ng/ml * previous negative biopsy * neurological disorders that could affect the pain level such as paraplegia or hemiplegia, analgesics use for any reason on the day of or the day before the procedure, * patients underwent biopsy under general anesthesia, * having such diseases as anal fissure or hemorrhoidal disease that could alter the pain threshold
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| To detect painful steps of biopsy procedure by asking patients verbally | Within 5 minutes after biopsy | to ask patients most painful step of procedure that verbally defined them before biopsy as 1: insertion of the probe into the rectum, 2: probe manipulation, and 3: the piercing of the biopsy needle |
| Over all Visual analogue Score (VAS) score of procedure(From 0 to 100 points, 100 is max pain score according to patient) | Within 5 minutes after prostate biopsy | pain assessment was performed using Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) |
