Prostate biopsy in Tver

Prostate adenoma

Clinic Medicine specialists have extensive experience in diagnosing and treating prostate adenoma

Prostate adenoma is the formation of benign prostatic hyperplasia, that is, an increase in its volume. As a rule, the formation of this kind is associated with age, in particular, with a change in hormonal status.

Prostate adenoma is characterized by an increase in the size of benign tissue located around the sub-urethral (prostatic) segment of the urethra.

This disease is quite common and is diagnosed in more than 40% of men aged 50 years and more than 90% of men over 80 years of age. To confirm the diagnosis, histological examinations are carried out (according to indications).

The main symptom of Prostate adenoma is changes in the process of urination:

• more frequent urges, strengthening their imperativeness;
• feeling of incomplete emptying;
• Jet sluggishness.

The manifestation of these signs significantly impairs the quality of life: it adversely affects the depth and duration of sleep, and also leads to sexual problems.

Diagnostics of prostate adenoma in the Medicine Clinic

Diagnosis of prostate adenoma includes palpation of this area directly through the rectum, which allows the attending physician to have an idea of the size and consistency of the prostate gland.

Determining the level of PSA (prostate-specific antigen) in the blood makes it possible to select patients for a biopsy (collecting sections of prostate tissue for histological examination in order to exclude prostate cancer).

Ultrasound makes it possible to assess the size of the gland and the presence of residual urine. The most informative transrectal (through the rectum) ultrasound (TRUS), which makes it possible to characterize the structure of the prostate.

In the Clinic of Medicine, the choice of method and scheduling of the treatment of prostate adenoma remains with the urologist. Only a highly qualified specialist with extensive experience is able to assess the full versatility of the clinical manifestations of the disease, determine the range of a wide range of medicinal methods of treatment, while taking into account the psychosomatic state of the patient and help the patient's morale for recovery.

Information for the patient

Biopsy is a research method in which cells or tissues (biopsy) are taken from the body in vivo for diagnostic or research purposes. A biopsy is a mandatory method of confirming the diagnosis in cases of suspected cancer.

Biopsy is the most reliable research method if it is necessary to establish the cellular composition of the tissue. Taking tissues and their subsequent examination under a microscope allows you to determine the exact cellular composition of the material under study. A biopsy is a study that is included in the diagnostic minimum for suspected cancer, and is supplemented by other research methods, such as x-ray, endoscopic, immunological.

An essential circumstance that determines the need for a biopsy is the need to determine the tactics of treatment for oncological diseases. The treatment of oncological diseases requires the implementation of traumatic, often disabling interventions: surgical operations, radiation therapy, the introduction of toxic chemotherapy drugs, which does not allow starting treatment without reliable confirmation of the diagnosis, which is a histological or cytological examination of biopsy specimens.

Multifocal transrectal prostate biopsy

This technique can be carried out under the control of both the ultrasound machine and the surgeon's finger. The procedure can be performed in different positions: on the side with the legs pulled up to the chest, lying on the back with the legs raised on the stands or in the knee-elbow position.

To anesthetize this method of tissue sampling, local anesthesia is performed.After that, ultrasound or the surgeon's finger is used to control the manipulations performed and accurately hit the biopsy needle in the necessary areas of the gland. To take samples of gland tissues, a special spring-loaded needle is used, which quickly enters and quickly leaves the gland tissues. This biopsy method allows you to select up to 10 pieces of prostate tissue.

When performing a multifocal transrectal biopsy under ultrasound monitoring, the procedure takes only a few minutes. If such a technique is performed with a finger examination, then its duration can be about 30 minutes.

Breast biopsy

A biopsy is necessary to confirm an accurate diagnosis when a woman is suspected of having breast cancer. Of the methods of biopsy, operative and non-operative can be distinguished. In some cases, the procedure for taking a tissue sample from the breast requires the use of anesthesia.

A biopsy is performed only in some cases, when other modern research methods, for example, such as ultrasound or mammography, do not give a complete picture of the nature of the changes occurring in the breast tissues. To determine the type of tumor (benign or malignant), a diagnostic procedure such as a biopsy is necessary, the purpose of which is precisely to identify the nature of the tumor pathology in the mammary gland.

Biopsy of the thyroid gland

The thyroid gland is often exposed to various diseases, in which a biopsy procedure is necessary to clarify the diagnosis and picture of the pathology. Unlike ultrasound diagnostics, a biopsy helps to determine with absolute accuracy the degree of malignancy of the pathological process and the stage of its development.

Thyroid biopsy is indicated in situations where:

• A large knot, more than a centimeter in diameter, was detected;
• If the formation is growing rapidly, it grows by 2 mm or more in six months;
• If the thyroid gland has an excessively dense structure;
• If microcalcifications and additional vasculature are found in the glandular tissues;
• To determine the nature of autoimmune thyroiditis, as well as nodular formations.
