: Transperineal prostate biopsy offers advantages over transrectal biopsy in terms of cancer detection in specific prostate areas, potential use of larger-gauge needles for tissue sampling, a lower risk of severe infectious complications such as sepsis, and lower use of antibiotic prophylaxis, aligning with antibiotic stewardship policies and reducing the risk of antimicrobial resistance and gut microbiome changes.
