Transjugular renal biopsy (TJRB) offers a safe alternative for kidney biopsy in patients with bleeding risks. This new technique successfully obtained diagnostic tissue samples in most patients, aiding in glomerulopathy diagnosis.

Area of Science:

  • Nephrology
  • Interventional Radiology
  • Pathology

Context:

  • Transjugular renal biopsy (TJRB) is indicated when standard percutaneous biopsy poses increased risks, particularly in patients with impaired coagulation.
  • This novel technique has not been previously utilized in the country, necessitating the documentation of initial experiences.

Purpose:

  • To describe the initial experience and evaluate the feasibility and safety of transjugular renal biopsy (TJRB) in a clinical setting.
  • To assess the diagnostic yield and complication rate of TJRB for kidney tissue sampling.

Summary:

  • TJRB involves accessing the renal vein via the internal jugular vein to obtain kidney tissue using a specialized needle and aspiration technique.
  • The procedure was performed on 10 patients, yielding adequate renal cortex specimens with an average of seven glomeruli in 8 cases.

  • Histological examination significantly contributed to the diagnosis in 7 patients, with three experiencing subcapsular hematomas as the main complication.

    • Impact:

    • TJRB facilitates the diagnosis of glomerulopathies, especially in patients with contraindications for standard biopsy.
    • The method, though technically demanding, demonstrates low risk and good tolerance when performed correctly, potentially reducing biopsy complications.
