Default The Gleason Test

My Father-in-Law who has prostate cancer had the Gleason Test but when he told me about the biopsy I could not work out how they reach the Prostate via the Anus.

A very helpful explanation thanks. He is 86 and has had treatment for the last 2 and a bit years. GP has re-assured him he will die with it not from it despite it having spread a little into nearby "bits". Bones & Lymph Glands but not into his bladder.
