Thanks @normanswan at @RadioNational for discussion today on #TRexit - ending #transrectal #prostatebiopsy in favour of safer #transperineal approach. Thanks to all co-authors on #TRexit paper @DrHWoo @declangmurphy @michael_gorin

Can we rid urology of the simple but increasingly harmful procedure of #transrectal biopsy? #TRexit One less obstacle in the way of #PSA screening. @USANZUrology @Uroweb @AmerUrological @SIU_urology

Another nail in the coffin of #transrectal #prostate #biopsy #Transperineal biopsy only needs single shot of cephazolin to cover skin commensals (if anything at all) @declangmurphy @Uroweb @mrsprostate @DrAndrewLoblaw @LambAlastair

"Trexit" - making #transrectal #prostatebiopsy history at #AUA19. The future is #Transperineal biopsy. Near-zero sepsis. No fancy antibiotics. And now done under #localanaesthesia. @Uroweb @USANZUrology @AmerUrological @SIU_urology

How to justify big gun #antibiotics for #transrectal prostate biopsy? @AmerUrological @normanswan @USANZUrology

How can we justify ongoing #transrectal biopsy in the face of this? @USANZUrology @PCFA
