Periprostatic Haematoma After Transrectal Ultrasound Guided Biopsy - The Importance of Multidisciplinary Team Approach: Case Report

Abstract

We present a case of a 64-year-old man who was diagnosed with Gleason 3 + 4 = 7 adenocarcinoma of the prostate following transrectal ultrasound guided prostatic biopsy for elevated PSA. Staging Magnetic Resonance scan revealed a well defined lesion between right prostatic lobe and the rectum. Signal changes were atypical for haematoma in follow up scans. We discuss diagnostic process and the impact of multidisciplinary approach.
