What are the dangers of prostate puncture? Pay attention to the clinical risks

When we have some abnormal symptoms, it is likely a sign of illness. The most correct way at this time is to go to the hospital for a routine checkup to confirm what disease you have. For example, there is a test called prostate puncture in the men's examination. Will it bring harm to the male body?

(1) Infection:

Prostatic abscess, bacteremia, septicemia, etc.; Currently, with the improvement of preoperative puncture preparation technology and the advancement of puncture technology in clinical practice, the probability of such complications has been greatly reduced.

(2) Rectal bleeding and bloody stools:

Rectal bleeding and bloody stools are the most common complications. Bleeding mostly comes from the rectal wall. After puncture, intrarectal pressure is applied to stop bleeding. Most bleeding can stop quickly. Sometimes a small amount of blood will be discharged with the stool and can last for several days.

(3) Hematuria:

It is relatively common in clinical practice, manifested by gross hematuria when patients urinate, mostly bleeding in the prostatic urethra, with a small amount of bleeding and rarely persistent bleeding.

(4) Urinary retention:

For patients with a history of dysuria, labored urination, and a large prostate, a urinary catheter may be required because of prostate bleeding and edema after puncture, which increases the local prostate volume and compresses the urethra, leading to dysuria.
