[Prostate cancer diagnostic by saturation randomized biopsy versus rigid targeted biopsy]. / Détection du cancer de prostate par biopsies de saturation versus biopsies ciblées fusion d'image rigide.

INTRODUCTION: Optimal diagram teaming up randomized biopsy (BR) to targeted biopsy (BC) is still missing for the diagnostic of prostate cancer (CP). This study compares diagram of 6, 12 or 18 BR with or without BC rigid. METHODS: Between January 2014 and May 2016, 120 patients had prostate biopsy BR and BC. Each patient had 18 BR and BC. Results compared sextant (6 BR), standard (12 BR) and saturation (18 BR) protocol with or without the adding of BC for the detection of CP. RESULTS: Rectal examination was normal, mean PSA at 8.99ng/mL and mean volume at 54cm3. It was first round for 48% of patients. Forty-four cancers were found by the group 18 BR+BC (control). The detection rate was respectively, for 6, 12 and 18 BR of 61%, 82% and 91%. The add of BC increased this detection of +27% for 6 BR+BC, +13% for 12 BR+BC and +9% for 18 BR+BC. BC found 70% of all CP. Nine percent of CP were missed by BR only. Significant CP (Gleason≥7) diagnostic was the same for 12 BR+BC and 18 BR+BC. CONCLUSION: The add of BC to BR increase the detection of CP by 10%. Twelve BR+BC is the optimal diagram for the diagnostic of CP finding 95% of CP and 97% of significant CP. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: 4.

Post-procedure bleeding in interventional radiology.

Following interventional radiology procedures, bleeding can occur in 0.5 to 4% of the cases. Risk factors are related to the patient, to the procedure, and to the end organ. Bleeding is treated usually by interventional radiologists and consists mainly of embolization. Bleeding complications are preventable: before the procedure by checking hemostasis, during the procedure by ensuring the accurate puncture site (with ultrasound or fluoroscopy guidance) or by treating the puncture path using gelatin sponge, curaspon(®), biological glue or thermocoagulation, and after the procedure by carefully monitoring the patients.

Imaging strategies before beginning treatment of colorectal liver metastases.

The management of colorectal intrahepatic metastases before resection is multidisciplinary and radiologists and nuclear medicine specialists play a major role. In accordance with the French National Guide for appropriate use of diagnostic imaging, the approach should be multimodal: a chest-abdomen and pelvic (CAP) CT scan and hepatic MRI are mandatory while PET-CT provides important additional information, in particular on intra-abdominal extrahepatic metastases. This multimodal approach emphasizes the importance of early and appropriate use of imaging in these patients, as well as the central role of multidisciplinary meetings in oncology.

Imaging benign hepatocellular tumors: atypical forms and diagnostic traps.

Management of patients with a benign hepatocellular tumor relies largely on imaging data; the diagnosis of focal nodular hyperplasia (FNH) must be made with certainty using MRI, because no other clinical or laboratory data can help diagnosis. It is also essential to identify adenomas to manage them appropriately. The radiological report in these situations is therefore of major importance. However, there are diagnostic traps. The aim of this paper is to present the keys to the diagnosis of benign lesions and to warn of the main diagnostic pitfalls.
