However, the effect of the optimal puncture approach on diagnostic yield and patient outcomes remains controversial.  \nObjective—To compare the diagnostic effectiveness and clinical outcomes of ultrasound-guided transperineal versus transrectal prostate aspiration biopsy inpatients suspected of prostate cancer.  \nMethods—A retrospective analysis was conducted on 150 patients who underwent prostate biopsy at our hospital between February 2020 and August 2024. Patients were divided into transperineal (n = 62) and transrectal (n = 88) groups. Key outcomes including cancer detection rate, complications, pain (VAS), and negative emotions were compared, with p \u003C .05 indicating a statistically signiﬁcant difference.  \nResults—No signiﬁcant difference was found between the transperineal and transrectal groups in the detection rates of prostate cancer (51.61% versus 43.18%), chronic prostatitis (12.90% versus 18.18%), or benign prostatic hyperplasia (35.48% versus 38.64%) . Transperineal biopsy required longer puncture time (22 .92 􀀁 2.02 min versus 19 .70 􀀁 1.93 min), but resulted in fewer overall complications (20.97% versus 38.64%), lower post-procedure pain scores (VAS: 2.82 􀀁 1.13 versus 3.68 􀀁 1.14), and lower anxiety (HAMA: 10.34 􀀁 1.29 versus 12.55 􀀁 1.44) and depression scores (HAMD: 10.33 􀀁 1.68 versus 12.90 􀀁 1.38) .  \nConclusion—Both ultrasound-guided transperineal and transrectal prostate biopsies are effective diagnostic methods for prostate cancer. Transperineal biopsy offers advantages in reducing postoperative complications, pain, and negative emotional responses, supporting its preferential use in selected patients.  \nKey Words—complications; negative emotions; pain; prostate cancer; transperineal puncture; transrectal puncture  \nP rostate cancer is one of the most common malignant tumors  \nof the male genitourinary system, and its incidence  \ncontinues to rise globally, especially in older men. 1,2 As early symptoms of prostate cancer are not obvious, timely and effective diagnostic methods are crucial for improving patients’quality of life and prolonging their survival period.3,4 The gold  \n© 2026 The Author(s) .
