Ultrasound-Guided Prostate Biopsy Procedure
When is This Procedure Necessary?
What To Expect
Patients will be under general anesthesia to ensure their comfort throughout the procedure. During this procedure, the surgeon will insert an ultrasound probe into the rectum to examine the prostate. To acquire a sample of prostate tissue, the surgeon will use real-time ultrasound imaging to guide a thin needle into different areas of the prostate gland to collect tissue samples for analysis. When the goal of the procedure is achieved, the surgeon will remove the ultrasound and patients are monitored as they wake up.
After undergoing an ultrasound-guided prostate biopsy, patients can expect a relatively smooth recovery process with minor discomfort. It is normal to experience some blood in the urine or stool for a few days following the procedure. Additionally, patients may also notice slight bruising or soreness around the biopsy site. These symptoms typically subside within a week, but it is important to follow post-biopsy care instructions provided by a healthcare provider.
