Prostate Cancer

In this video, Adam S. Kibel, MD, discusses the development of transrectal ultrasound-guided prostate biopsy and how prostate biopsy has continued to evolve over the years.

“Using the single-port robot with the transvesical approach allows us to go directly into the bladder, this means that we avoid the intraperitoneal cavity, which is not feasible with the multiport approach. This has led to less pain and postoperative ileus because the bowels stay intact,” says Jihad Kaouk, MD.

On this episode of Cleveland Clinic’s Cancer Advances podcast, Zeyad Schwen, MD, discusses transperineal biopsy and advancements in screening for prostate cancer.

“We need to address the issue of therapy resistance, as it may become a larger problem in the future,” said Sarki Abdulkadir, MD, PhD.

Prostate tumors are among the cancers for whom this novel therapy is being explored.

"The true innovation is finding better ways to do focal therapy that decreases the side effects for the patients and still treats the lesion effectively," says Jennifer A. Linehan, MD.
