    Abstract Objective: To evaluate the rate of revision surgery following commonly performed procedures for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is hyperplasia of both glandular and stromal components of prostate especially in periurethral transitional gland, using real-world data from Medicare Australia.
    Methods: Prospection is a Healthcare Data Analytics firm that has negotiated access with the Medicare Benefits Schedule (MBS) to provide longitudinal data on the use of specific procedural item codes. We identified patients over the age of 40 years who had undergone primary transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP), transurethral incision of the prostate (TUIP) or photoselective vaporization of the prostate (PVP) between 2005 and 2010 using MBS item numbers 37203, 37207 and 36854, respectively. Using longitudinal MBS data, primary outcomes included need for revision surgery at 5-years follow-up (2015). The release of these data was approved by Medicare Australia upon application. Data analysis was conducted using chi-squared tests and statistical significance was defined at P < 0.05.
    Results: The distribution of primary surgical procedures performed between 2005 and 2010 was: TURP 5579 (90%), TUIP 345 (6%) and PVP 258 (4%). TURP was also the most prevalent procedure for treatment of lower urinary tract symptoms in men with BPH requiring revision surgery (75%). At 5-year follow-up the rate of revision surgery for TURP (573/5579), TUIP (47/345) and PVP (30/258) was 10.3%, 13.6% and 11.6%, respectively. The difference was not statistically significant (P = 0.12). There was no significant change (P = 0.59) observed over the years in number of men requiring revision surgery.
    Conclusion: This study indicates that TURP and PVP have a similar durability after 5 years of follow-up.

    Abstract Objective: To present the template-guided transperineal prostate biopsy (TPB) outcomes for patients of two urologists from a single institution.
    Patients and methods: We conducted a prospective study of 409 consecutive men who underwent TPB between December 2006 and June 2008 in a tertiary referral centre using a standardized 14-region technique. The procedure was performed as day surgery under general anaesthesia with fluoroquinolone antibiotic cover. Follow-up took place within 2 weeks, during which time men were interviewed using a standardized template. Results were compared with those of the Australian national prostate biopsy audits performed by the Urological Society of Australia and New Zealand (USANZ).
    Results: Indications for biopsy included elevated prostate-specific antigen (PSA) level (75%), with a median PSA level of 6.5 ng/mL, abnormal digital rectal examination (8%) and active surveillance (AS) re-staging (18%). The mean patient age was 63 years and two-thirds of patients were undergoing their first biopsy. A positive biopsy was found in 232 men, 74% of whom had a Gleason score of ≥7. The overall cancer detection rate was 56.7% (USANZ 2005 national audit = 56.5%). Stratified between those having their first TPB or a repeat procedure (after a previous negative biopsy), the detection rates were 64.4 and 35.6%, respectively. Significantly higher detection rates were found in prostates <50 mL in volume than in larger prostates (65.2 vs 38.3%, respectively, P < 0.001). Haematuria was the most common side effect (51.7%). Others included dysuria (16.4%), acute urinary retention (4.2%) and fever (3.2%). One patient (0.2%) had septicaemia requiring i.v. antibiotics. Repeat biopsy was not associated with increased complication rates.
    Conclusions: TPB is a safe and efficacious technique, with a cancer detection rate of 56.7% in the present series, and a low incidence of major side effects. Stratified by prostate volume, the detection rate of TPB was higher in smaller glands. Given the relatively low rate of serious complications, clinicians could consider increasing the number of TPB biopsy cores in larger prostates as a strategy to improve cancer detection within this group. Conversely, in patients on AS programmes, a staging TPB may be a superior approach for patients undergoing repeat biopsy so as to minimize their risk of serious infection.

    Abstract Purpose: We determined whether systematic template guided transperineal biopsies can accurately locate and sensitively detect prostate cancer. In addition, we reported discrepancies between diagnostic and pathological Gleason scores, and investigated whether prostate size had an effect on the cancer detection rate.
    Materials and methods: This retrospective diagnostic accuracy study compares the results of primary transperineal biopsies with the radical prostatectomy pathology of 414 consecutive patients treated at a single institution between November 2002 and August 2010.
    Results: The average sensitivity and specificity for the detection of cancer in all prostates across all biopsy zones was 48% (95% CI 42.6-53.4) and 84.1% (95% CI 80-88.2), respectively. There was a statistically significant decrease in the sensitivity of transperineal biopsy in larger prostates (t11=4.687, p=0.001). The overall Kappa value was 0.255 (95% CI 0.212-0.298). Grading concordance between biopsy and pathology specimens was achieved in 65.7% of patients. Upgrading of Gleason scores occurred in 25.6% of patients and downgrading occurred in 8.8%.
    Conclusions: Our current transperineal biopsy method has only demonstrated fair agreement with the histopathology findings of the corresponding radical prostatectomy specimens. This finding is most likely due to the small, multifocal nature of prostate cancer in the patient series. The cancer detection rate was lower in larger prostates. Thus, clinicians may consider increasing the number of cores in larger prostates as a strategy to improve cancer detection.
