Intrarectal povidone-iodine cleansing plus formalin disinfection of needle tip during transrectal ultrasound guided prostate biopsy
The examiner will use a gauze soaked and saturated with iodopovidone and perform a mechanical friction motion on the anterior wall of the rectum, at least 5 times from one margin to another of the prostate laterally-laterally. A period of two (2) minutes shall be waited from the prophylactic cleaning of the rectum to the beginning of the biopsy. The examiner will use a technique of disinfecting the 10% formaldehyde biopsy needle without manual contact by soaking the distal 3 cm of the needle directly into a vial containing the bactericidal solution between obtaining the different fragments. An individual bottle will be used for each patient
