How long does prostate biopsy take?

Prostate biopsy is usually done in 10-30 minutes.

Prostate biopsy is a routine examination to check prostate tissue for cancer. If the patient has a large prostate lesion and clinical symptoms are obvious, the biopsy time is relatively short, generally within 10 minutes. If the patient's condition is mild, clinical symptoms are not obvious, and the lesion site is small, it is not easy to puncture the lesion site. Multiple puncture examinations are time-consuming, and abnormal bleeding may occur, resulting in prolonged puncture examination time. At this time, it takes more time, usually about 30 minutes.
