Minimizing infectious complications following transrectal prostate biopsy: a proposal for a risk-adapted antibiotic treatment strategy with Ceftriaxone and Ertapenem as key components.
World J Urol
December 2024
Department of Urology, General Hospital Hall in Tirol, Milser Straße 10, Hall in Tirol, 6060, Austria.
Purpose: To investigate the effect of pre-biopsy rectal swab and urine screening combined with a risk-adapted antibiotic treatment strategy on reducing post-biopsy infections (PBIs) following multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI)/ transrectal ultrasound (TRUS) fusion-targeted transrectal prostate biopsy (TRPBx).
Methods: 1119 Patients undergoing mpMRI-TRUS fusion TRPBx between June 2017 and February 2024 were included. Patients were screened for rectal extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)/multi-resistant gram-negative (MRGN) and urinary pathogens.
Endomyocardial Biopsy Using Rigid Bioptome Technique and the Risk of Tricuspid Regurgitation after Heart Transplantation.
Arq Bras Cardiol
October 2024
Serviço de Cardiologia - Hospital de Clínicas de Porto Alegre, Porto Alegre, RS - Brasil.
Endomyocardial biopsy (EB) is the preferred procedure for post-heart transplant rejection diagnosis. The rigid bioptome technique has been used due to its greater simplicity and has been criticized for the potential risk of tricuspid regurgitation (TR). We aimed to review all the EBs performed by this technique in a tertiary center and estimate the rate of complications and/or aggravation of TR.

This study aimed to evaluate the feasibility of performing multiple testicular biopsies in rams using Tru-cut® needles, assessing histological structure, gene expression, and potential complications such as effects on semen quality, testicular blood flow, and ultrasonographic echotexture. In Exp. 1, six mature rams underwent testicular biopsies at intervals (0, 3, 6, 12, 24, and 48 h) using a 16 G Tru-cut® needle, with alternating testes for each collection.

Department of Neurology, BG-University Hospital Bergmannsheil, Ruhr-University Bochum, Bochum, Germany.
Background And Purpose: Quantitative muscle magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a promising non-invasive method in the diagnostic workup as well as follow-up of neuromuscular disorders. The aim of this study was to correlate quantitative MRI (qMRI) parameters to histopathological changes in skeletal muscle tissue and thus to verify the data from our pilot study.
Methods: Twenty-six patients (eight females, 46.
Clinical Audit of Assisting Renal Biopsy Procedure Performed in Nephrology Unit of a Tertiary Care Hospital with a View to Develop Standard Nursing Procedure Protocol.
Indian J Nephrol
May 2024
Department of Hospital Administration, All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS), New Delhi, India.
Background: Renal biopsy is one of the most commonly performed diagnostic procedures in the nephrology unit. Nurses play a very important role in pre-biopsy preparation, assisting during procedure and post-biopsy care. Nursing care provided during or after renal biopsy is of utmost importance in reducing complications.
