We think that is important to give our patients a previous information as precise as posible about the exploration, that could be able to resolve all possible doubts that could appear and can put face to it with composure. In like manner we try to ratify the good tolerance of the exploration. Was evaluated the answer of a voluntary inquiry of the first 600 patients to whom was realizated the ultrasound-guided prostatic biopsy punction, with automatic needle 18 G and obtaining six samples, three in each lobe. Of the 600 inquiries answers 392 patients (65.3%). The 29.9% didn´t relate any kind of complication. Only the 3.8% wen´t to emergency room. It´s noticeable that the bleeding was the 59.6% of the total. An inappreciable percentage would like anaesthesia or suggest that the exploration is so hard. We have to insist to the patients about the high probability of bleed in short quantity and prolongated in time.
