TLDR
Based on the reviewed literature, MRGB can be regarded an accurate and safe diagnostic tool to detect clinically significant PCa, however, as general availability is limited, this procedure should be reserved for specific patients.
Abstract
In-bore magnetic resonance-guided biopsy (MRGB) has been increasingly used in clinical practice to detect prostate cancer (PCa). This review summarizes the current clinical results of this biopsy method. A systematic literature search was performed in the PubMed and Embase databases. Of 2,035 identified records, 49 required full review. In all, ten unique studies reporting clinical results of MRGB could be included. Reported PCa detection rates ranged from 8 to 59 % (median 42 %). The majority of tumors detected by MRGB were clinically significant (81–93 %). Most frequent complications of MRGB are transient hematuria (1–24 %) and short-term perirectal bleeding (11–17 %). Major complications are rare. Based on the reviewed literature, MRGB can be regarded an accurate and safe diagnostic tool to detect clinically significant PCa. However, as general availability is limited, this procedure should be reserved for specific patients. Appropriate indications will have to be determined.

Complications After Systematic, Random, and Image-guided Prostate Biopsy

TL;DR: Complications after prostate biopsy are frequent but often self-limiting, and transperineal and in-bore MRI-targeted biopsy may reduce the risk of severe infectious complications.

The emerging threat of multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacteria in urology

TL;DR: Responding to the challenges of Gram-negative resistance will require a multifaceted approach including considered use of current antimicrobial agents, improved diagnostics and surveillance, better adherence to basic measures of infection prevention, development of new antibiotics and research into non-antibiotic treatment and preventive strategies.

The FUTURE Trial: A Multicenter Randomised Controlled Trial on Target Biopsy Techniques Based on Magnetic Resonance Imaging in the Diagnosis of Prostate Cancer in Patients with Prior Negative Biopsies

TL;DR: The detection rates of (aggressive) prostate cancer among men with prior negative biopsies and a persistent suspicion of cancer using three different techniques of targeted biopsy based on magnetic resonance imaging were found to be no significant differences.

Optimization of Prostate Biopsy: the Role of Magnetic Resonance Imaging Targeted Biopsy in Detection, Localization and Risk Assessment

TL;DR: Use of magnetic resonance imaging for targeting prostate biopsies has the potential to reduce the sampling error associated with conventional biopsy by providing better disease localization and sampling.

Cancer statistics, 2011: the impact of eliminating socioeconomic and racial disparities on premature cancer deaths.

TL;DR: Overall cancer death rates decreased in all racial/ethnic groups in both men and women from 1998 through 2007, with the exception of American Indian/Alaska Native women, in whom rates were stable.

Safety and morbidity of first and repeat transrectal ultrasound guided prostate needle biopsies: results of a prospective european prostate cancer detection study

TL;DR: Transrectal ultrasound guided biopsy is generally well tolerated with minor morbidity only rarely requiring treatment, and patients younger than 60 years should be counseled in regard to a higher level of discomfort, and local and topical anesthesia if desired.

The sextant protocol for ultrasound-guided core biopsies of the prostate underestimates the presence of cancer

TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluated the sensitivity of the sextant biopsy protocol compared with a more extensive procedure for the detection of prostate cancer and defined a biopsy model with the minimal number of biopsies necessary to maintain diagnostic accuracy.

Magnetic resonance imaging guided prostate biopsy in men with repeat negative biopsies and increased prostate specific antigen.

TL;DR: Multimodal magnetic resonance imaging is an effective technique to localize prostate cancer and is an accurate method to detect clinically significant prostate cancer in men with repeat negative biopsies and increased prostate specific antigen.

Correlation of prostate needle biopsy and radical prostatectomy Gleason grade in academic and community settings.

TL;DR: Sampling was the major source of discrepancy and was often due to the high-grade component in the RP not being present in the biopsy results or due to a component of cancer on the needle reflecting such a small percentage of the pattern seen on RP that this pattern was not included in the final RP Gleason score.
