In this video, Dr. Yogesh Kaje discusses a Transrectal Ultrasound-Guided Prostate Biopsy.
00:00 Introduction
00:27 What is a TRUS (Transrectal Ultrasound) Guided Biopsy?
This biopsy is performed to target the prostate, where a few samples are collected using fine needles.
It is recommended for patients who have prostate-related issues and have undergone a firm-feeling finger examination by doctors.
It is also recommended if the PSA level is higher than 4 or if MRI reports suggest a possible cancer risk.
This is a normal day-care procedure.
If the patient has a heart-related condition or diabetes, a fitness certificate is required.
Patients are given antibiotics two days before the procedure.
02:22 Risks Related to Biopsy
The biopsy procedure is generally safe, but sometimes, the patient might experience fever or bleeding through the urine or rectum.
These issues can be easily addressed by a urologist.
