Core Tip
Core tip: This retrospective study demonstrated that transurethral detachment of the prostate combined with peripheral zone biopsy may improve prostate cancer detection rate in patients with repeated negative biopsies, and abnormal prostate-specific antigen level. The prostate-specific antigen level declined rapidly 3 mo postoperatively in patients with negative pathological examinations and remained stable 1 year after surgery.
