Purpose: The peripheral zone is histologically different from the transitional zone. The aim of this study is to analyze the differences between the prevalence and grade of malignancy of mpMRI-targeted biopsies that involve the TZ with respect to the PZ.
Methods: A cross-sectional study of 597 men evaluated for PC screening between February 2016 and October 2022 was conducted.
Introduction: The 3-Tesla multiparametric MRI (mpMRI) system represents a diagnostic advance for prostate cancer. Our aim is to demonstrate that the results in 1.5-Tesla mpMRI are not inferior compared to the 3-Tesla for the correct diagnosis of prostate cancer.

Methods: Twenty-four female porcine models were used. A 4.
Introduction: Prostate Fusion biopsy (MRI + prostate ultrasound) is described in literature as superior to classic random transrectal biopsy in order to identify suspicious lesion.
Objectives: To evaluate the Prostate Imaging Reporting and Data System (PI-RADS) proposed by the European Society of Urogenital Radiology (ESUR) for detection of prostate cancer by multiparametric MRI in a consecutive cohort of patients with MRI and transrectal ultrasound prostate fusion-guided biopsy.
Material And Methods: 87 patients with suspected Prostatic Cancer on prostate MRI underwent fusion transperineal prostate biopsy in our Department.
Objective: Mondor's disease is a superficial thrombophlebitis and usually occurs in the anterior and lateral chest. The scrotal vein thrombosis is a fairly rare disease.
Methods: Thirty-four year old male who consulted for inguinal tumor and pain in the postoperative period of an umbilical hernia repair, which resulted in a subsequent scrotal vein thrombosis treated conservatively.
