Purpose: Patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) play a pivotal role when recommending medical interventions. There is a lack of prospective studies directly comparing PROMs following transrectal (TR-Bx) and transperineal prostate biopsy (TP-Bx). We conducted a pre-specified comparative analysis of PROMs from the ProBE-PC randomized trial.

Purpose Of Review: The expanding range of minimally invasive surgical therapies (MISTs) for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) reflects a growing emphasis on individualized, anatomy-driven treatment that prioritizes symptom relief, reduced morbidity, and preservation of sexual function. This review provides a timely synthesis of MISTs, highlighting innovations in technique, key anatomical considerations, and evolving strategies for patient-centered care in the modern clinical setting.
Recent Findings: Recent studies highlight the expanding role of MISTs, such as UroLift, Rezūm, the temporary implanted nitinol device, Optilume BPH, transperineal laser ablation, and prostatic stents.

Background And Objective: The apex-to-base transperineal (TP) prostate biopsy needle trajectory may better sample the anterior prostate than the transrectal approach. There is evidence that African American men are more likely to harbor anterior tumors, suggesting that TP biopsy would result in better detection in these men. We performed a secondary retrospective analysis of prospective randomized trial data to determine whether African American race is associated with anterior tumor location and better detection with TP biopsy.

Objective: To explore the role of prostate health index (PHI) and its derivatives for early screening in patients with PI-RADS score 3 and prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels of 4-20 μg/L.
Methods: Clinical data of 203 patients with a score of 3 on the PI-RADS v2.1 scoring system who underwent ultrasound-guided transperineal prostate aspiration biopsy from April 2021 to April 2024 from Provincial Hospital of Shandong First Medical University, Qilu Hospital of Shandong University and Weifang People's Hospital were collected.
