At the Pozmedica Medical Center, we offer prostate biopsy in Poznań as one of the key diagnostic tests within the urology specialization. We perform this procedure in patients who are suspected of having prostate cancer or who have abnormal results from previous tests, such as elevated PSA levels, palpable changes during a rectal examination, or abnormalities visible in magnetic resonance imaging. Thanks to the use of advanced methods, it is possible to accurately detect cancerous changes and implement appropriate treatment.

Thanks to advanced methods, such as fusion prostate biopsy, it is possible to accurately detect cancerous changes and implement appropriate treatment.

Why is a prostate biopsy performed?

A prostate gland biopsy is one of the fundamental tests in the diagnosis of prostate cancer. A urologist may order this examination in the case of:

  • elevated PSA levels in the blood,
  • palpable changes during a rectal examination,
  • inconclusive results of a previous biopsy,
  • suspicious findings in prostate MRI (e.g., PI-RADS scale).

The examination allows tissue samples to be taken from the prostate gland and examined under a microscope to detect cancer cells. It is an essential stage in urological diagnostics that enables accurate disease identification and appropriate treatment planning.

What to expect during a prostate biopsy?

At Pozmedica, we ensure patient comfort and safety at every stage of the procedure. A prostate biopsy is performed on an outpatient basis, which means the patient can return home the same day. The entire procedure usually takes several dozen minutes. Prior to the procedure, a consultation with a urologist is conducted, who orders necessary tests such as blood count, urinalysis, and ECG.

Before the biopsy, the doctor should be informed about medications, allergies, and blood clotting disorders. In the case of a transrectal biopsy, antibiotics must be taken, and bowel emptying is required. The biopsy performed at Pozmedica is well tolerated, and the risk of complications such as bleeding, infection, or pain is minimized thanks to the experience of the team and modern diagnostic equipment.

When should a prostate biopsy be performed?

A prostate biopsy is indicated for patients with suspected prostate cancer, as well as in cases of:

  • persistently elevated PSA levels,
  • abnormalities found in previous histopathological examinations,
  • inconclusive MRI results (PI-RADS 3 or higher),
  • symptoms such as frequent urination, hematuria, erectile dysfunction, or lower abdominal pain.

It is important to remember that prostate cancer may not cause any symptoms for a long time. Therefore, men over 50 years old, especially those with a family history of the disease, should regularly undergo screening tests and consult a urologist.
