Preoperative evaluation with biopsy is in many cases unreliable to pathological stage and grade. In this study we considered 31 patients with prostate cancer, evaluated with directed ultrasound guided biopsy (15) or with sextant biopsy (16). Sextant biopsy showed better results. Grading was confirmed by radical prostatectomy specimen in 62.5%. The role of expectant therapy is then discussed. | lld:pubmed |
