Complications of Ultrasound-guided Prostate Biopsy

Prostate biopsy is the gold standard for the diagnosis of prostate cancer. Ultrasound-guided prostate biopsy is a routine method for the diagnosis of prostate cancer. At present, the common method is ultrasound-guided transrectal or transperineal biopsy, and fusion MRI can also be used for biopsy. Prostate biopsy brings convenience to clinical diagnosis and treatment, and inevitably brings complications to some patients. However, the incidence of serious complications after prostate biopsy is usually low, but the occurrence of minor complications cannot be ignored.
