Transperineal versus Transrectal Prostate Biopsy: Comparative Analysis of Cancer Detection and Complication Rates.
Transperineal prostate biopsy demonstrated a higher overall detection rate and significantly fewer complications compared to the transrectal approach, while maintaining equivalent detection of clinically significant prostate cancer. The absence of age-related or histological bias confirms that the lower complication rate of TP biopsy is attributable to the procedural route rather than patient-related factors.
