MRI-targeted biopsy: is systematic biopsy obsolete?
INTRODUCTION Although prostate cancer is the most common non-cutaneous cancer in men, it is traditionally diagnosed with a non-targeted, systematic transrectal ultrasound prostate biopsy (TRUS-Bx). This technique has been demonstrated to both under-detect clinically significant (CS) cancer and over-detect clinically insignificant cancer, and performs poorly in patients with a prior negative bio...
متن کاملThree-dimensional printing technique assisted cognitive fusion in targeted prostate biopsy
Objective To explore the effect of 3-dimensional (3D) printing-assisted cognitive fusion on improvement of the positive rate in prostate biopsy. Methods From August to December 2014, 16 patients with suspected prostatic lesions detected by multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) were included.

متن کاملPromising Technique for Facial Nerve Reconstruction in Extended Parotidectomy
Introduction: Malignant tumors of the parotid gland account scarcely for 5% of all head and neck tumors. Most of these neoplasms have a high tendency for recurrence, local infiltration, perineural extension, and metastasis. Although uncommon, these malignant tumors require complex surgical treatment sometimes involving a total parotidectomy including a complete facial nerve resection. Severe fu...
متن کاملSoft-tissue Biopsy Technique
The instrument described here consists of a special syringe on which sharp cutting needles of various sizes are mounted. These produce undistorted biopsy specimens. Suction is used only to retain the specimen within the needle, and the cleancut cylinder of tissue is quite unlike that obtained by aspiration. Gillman and Gillman&2 used this principle for their liver biopsy instrument. We have ret...
