Abstract:
Following a brief history of transrectal ultrasonography, the author explains the fundamentals that led to his research on rectal echographic layers and then describes his theory as applied to the anatomical interpretation of these layers. Personal cases of preoperative staging with transrectal echography provide a basis for the critical evaluation of this method and its proposed role in clinical application.
