Summary

The main purpose is to compare the detection rate of 20-core versus 12-core prostate biopsy. The secondary objective is to evaluate pain perception using a validated scale to compare the analgesia provided by the two different local anesthesia schemes. Data will be prospectively collected from patients who will undergo prostate biopsy in a single high volume urology center. The patients will be randomized to two different biopsy samplings and two local anesthesia schemes.

Interventions

OTHER

20 core-biopsy fragments

Using the extended sextant fashion prostate biopsy, this randomized group was submitted to a 20-fragments core-biopsy to evaluate the diagnostic power, pain perception and complications comparative to institution's standard 12 cores.

PROCEDURE

Base and apex local anesthesia

Using the institution's standard local anesthesia protocol (base injection) as active comparator group, this randomized group was submitted to base and apex local anesthetic application to evaluate tolerability of the procedure, pain perception (with use of previous validated analogue pain scale) and complications.
