Pathological findings at radical prostatectomy of biopsy na ïve men diagnosed with MRI targeted biopsy alone without concomitant standard systematic sampling.

CONCLUSION: In biopsy naïve patients treated with RP, TB achieved higher rates of ISUP GG concordance, but same percentages of csPCa missed, compared to SB. Moreover, only patients with ISUP GG ≥2, but not patients with ISUP GG1, exhibited higher concordance rates. Finally, age, MCCI, MCCL, PSA-D, and lesion location were associated with concordance between TB and RP.
