Objective: Identify the prostate cancer detection rate in patients in whom underwenta saturation prostate biopsy as a rebiopsy from January 2005 to February 2015 at SanIgnacio Hospital. Materials and methods: In San Ignacio hospital were performedfrom January 2005 to February 2015, 114 saturation biopsies. The investigatorsmade a univariate analysis of the variables. The association between the variable wasevaluated based on the T-test and Wilcoxon test. P < 0.05 was considered statisticallysignificant. Finally, a regression model was performed to predict significant variablesfor prostate cancer. Results: The cancer detection rate using saturation prostate biopsywas 16.7% of which 84% were categorized as significant. A mean of 19 cores wereobtained. There were statistically significant differences between patients with prostatecancer and healthy patients in the number of previous biopsies, number of samples,prostate volume and PSA density. Conclusion: Saturation prostate biopsy in our studyhas a prostate cancer detection rate of 16.7% and 84% of them were significant in thiscohort of patients.
