Abstract
BackgroundTransperineal prostate biopsy is gradually becoming the standard methodology for diagnosing prostate cancer because of its high accuracy and low risk of infection, but careful preparation is not always highlighted before a transperineal biopsy.Case summarywe reported two cases of hair embedding during transurethral resection of the prostate following transperineal puncture biopsy with a Bard MC1820 disposable biopsy needle. Histological examination did not find the hair follicle structure required for hair growth. The hair source was suspected to be percutaneously brought in by needle during the biopsya simulated experiment was used to analyze and reconstruct the process of hair embedding in prostate tissue.ConclusionHair embedding caused by perineal prostate biopsy is a consumable-related adverse event, and skin preparation before a transperineal prostate biopsy is recommended.
