What is a Renal (Kidney) Biopsy?

A renal biopsy is a procedure done to take tiny samples of tissue from your kidney. This tissue is sent to a lab to help your doctor diagnose the type and stage of kidney disease. First, you will lie on your stomach or side. We use ultrasound or a CT scan to locate your kidney. The doctor cleans the skin and injects a local medicine to numb the back. Then, the doctor inserts a special needle through the skin into the kidney to remove two or three thin tissue threads. The needle makes a loud clicking sound when taking the sample.

Post-Procedure Monitoring Rules (Optional)

Bed Rest: You must lie flat on your back in bed for 4 to 6 hours after the biopsy to apply pressure and prevent bleeding.

Urine Checks: We will monitor your urine. It is normal to see a small amount of blood in your urine immediately after the procedure.

Activity Limits: Do not lift anything heavier than 10 pounds or do heavy exercise for 1 to 2 weeks after your biopsy.

Risks of the Procedure

Bleeding: There is a risk of bleeding inside or around the kidney. In rare cases, this bleeding can be severe and require a blood transfusion or surgery.

Blood in the Urine: You may pass blood or blood clots in your urine. This usually stops within a few days.

Pain: You may feel a dull ache in your back where the needle was inserted. This can be managed with mild pain relievers.

Organ Damage: In very rare cases, the biopsy needle can injure surrounding organs, such as the bowel, liver, or spleen.

Other Options Available to You

Open Surgical Biopsy: You can choose to have a surgeon make a small cut in your back to remove kidney tissue under general anesthesia.

No Biopsy: You can choose to treat your kidney problem based on blood and urine test results alone, but the treatment may not be as precise.
