Abstract
We describe the case of an 82-year-old female referred to the vascular clinic for further evaluation and management of suspected inferior vena cava (IVC) thrombosis. She had previously presented to the general practitioner with a one-week history of vague abdominal pain in the right and left loins. Contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the abdomen and magnetic resonance angiography/magnetic resonance venography (MRA/MRV) revealed a 10 cm filling defect in the IVC, with the inferior margin of ≈5.8 cm proximal to the aortic bifurcation and its superior margin in the intrahepatic portion of the IVC. The filling defect had a transverse diameter of 2.6 cm and displayed heterogenous enhancement with contrast. We performed an endovascular biopsy with fluoroscopy (anteroposterior {AP} and lateral views) being utilized throughout the procedure to locate the mass and position the forceps in the tumor bed. The IVC was accessed via the right common femoral vein with a 10F catheter sheath. The sheath was advanced using the Seldinger technique to within ≈1 cm of the mass; then, a biopsy forceps (Micro-Tech single-use 8.5 mm biopsy forceps, Nanjing, China) was inserted, and six tissue samples were obtained. We report this case to add to the growing evidence that endovascular biopsy of IVC tumors can be performed safely and effectively.

Clin Rheumatol 2023; 42:751-759. [PMID: 36201125 DOI: 10.1007/s10067-022-06394-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/09/2022] [Revised: 09/21/2022] [Accepted: 09/23/2022] [Indexed: 11/30/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Kidney biopsy is essential for the diagnosis and classification of lupus nephritis. Percutaneous biopsy has a risk of bleeding-related complications; however, data on the risk of percutaneous kidney biopsy in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) are scarce. In this study, we aimed to investigate the rate of bleeding-related complications and to examine the risk factors for complications of kidney biopsy in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of patients with SLE who underwent ultrasound-guided percutaneous kidney biopsy between 2002 and 2020 at a tertiary referral center. Minor complications were defined as hematoma and passing hematuria not requiring an intervention. Major complications included bleeding events that required interventions after the biopsy. Statistical analysis with a multivariate logistic regression model was performed. RESULTS In a total of 277 patients with SLE, the rate of overall bleeding-related complications after kidney biopsy was 19.9% (minor 13.0%; major 6.9%). Among patients with major complications, 84.2% needed blood transfusion alone without embolization or surgery, whereas the remaining three patients needed embolization for bleeding control. Multivariate analysis revealed that thrombocytopenia (odds ratio [OR] 7.186, 95% confidence interval [CI] 2.315-22.300), and low eGFR (OR 3.478, 95% CI 1.094-11.056) were significantly associated with the risk of major bleeding-related complications after kidney biopsy. CONCLUSION Percutaneous kidney biopsy is accompanied by the risk of bleeding-related complications; however, most events in our study did not require vascular intervention for bleeding control. Low platelet count and low estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) significantly increase the risk of complications after kidney biopsy in patients with SLE. Key Points • The rate of overall bleeding-related complications after kidney biopsy was about 20% of patients with SLE. • The most commonly observed events were gross hematuria followed by blood transfusion. • Thrombocytopenia and poor kidney function areis an important risk of bleeding-related complications after kidney biopsy.

J Clin Med 2022; 11:jcm11051459. [PMID: 35268550 PMCID: PMC8911133 DOI: 10.3390/jcm11051459] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/14/2022] [Revised: 02/28/2022] [Accepted: 03/05/2022] [Indexed: 02/04/2023] Open
Abstract
Background and objectives: Kidney biopsy (KB) is the “gold standard” for the diagnosis of nephropathies and it is a diagnostic tool that presents a low rate of complications. Nowadays, biobank collections of renal tissue of patients with proven renal pathology are essential for research in nephrology. To provide enough tissue for the biobank collection, it is usually needed to obtain an extra kidney core at the time of kidney biopsy. The objective of our study is to evaluate the complications after KB and to analyze whether obtaining an extra core increases the risk of complications. Material and methods: Prospective observational study of KBs performed at Vall d’Hebron Hospital between 2019 and 2020. All patients who accepted to participate to our research biobank of native kidney biopsies were included to the study. Clinical and laboratory data were reviewed and we studied risk factors associated with complications. Results: A total of 221 patients were included, mean age 56.6 (±16.8) years, 130 (58.8%) were men, creatinine was 2.24 (±1.94) mg/dL, proteinuria 1.56 (0.506–3.590) g/24 h, hemoglobin 12.03 (±2.3) g/dL, INR 0.99 (±0.1), and prothrombin time (PT) 11.86 (±1.2) s. A total of 38 patients (17.2%) presented complications associated with the procedure: 13.1% were minor complications, 11.3% (n = 25) required blood transfusion, 1.4% (n = 3) had severe hematomas, 2.3% (n = 5) required embolization, and 0.5% (n = 1) presented arterio-venous fistula. An increased risk for complication was independently associated with obtaining a single kidney core (vs. 2 and 3 cores) (p = 0.021). Conclusions: KB is an invasive and safe procedure with a low percentage of complications. Obtaining an extra kidney core for research does not increase the risk of complications during the intervention, which remains low in concordance with previously published reports.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common syndrome that has a significant impact on prognosis in various clinical settings. To evaluate whether new evidence supports changing the current definition/classification/staging systems for AKI suggested by the Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) 2012 Clinical Practice Guideline, the Taiwan AKI-TASK Force, composed of 64 experts in various disciplines, systematically reviewed the literature and proposed recommendations about the current nomenclature and diagnostic criteria for AKI. The Taiwan Acute Kidney Injury (TW-AKI) Consensus 2020 was established following the principles of evidence-based medicine to investigate topics covered in AKI guidelines. The Taiwan AKI-TASK Force determined that patients with AKI have a higher risk of developing chronic kidney disease, end-stage renal disease, and death. After a comprehensive review, the TASK Force recommended using novel biomarkers, imaging examinations, renal biopsy, and body fluid assessment in the diagnosis of AKI. Clinical issues with regards to the definitions of baseline serum creatinine (sCr) level and renal recovery, as well as the use of biomarkers to predict renal recovery are also discussed in this consensus. Although the present classification systems using sCr and urine output for the diagnosis of AKI are not perfect, there is not enough evidence to change the current criteria in clinical practice. Future research should investigate and clarify the roles of the aforementioned tools in clinical practice for AKI.

Abstract
This study aimed to better define the safety and efficacy of transjugular renal biopsy (TJRB) based on published studies. Seventeen published articles were included (1,321 biopsies). Complications were classified as major if they resulted in blood transfusion or additional invasive procedures. All other bleeding complications were considered minor. Diagnostic tissue was obtained in 1,193 procedures (90.3%). The total incidence of bleeding complications among 15 articles with complete data was 202 of 892 procedures (22.6%): 162 (18.2%) minor and 40 (4.5 %) major. These results show that TJRB is a feasible procedure for obtaining renal tissue for diagnosis and that most complications are self-limiting.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Transjugular renal biopsies (TRB) are an alternative when percutaneous ultrasound renal biopsy is contraindicated. Few sites are currently carrying out this procedure, with limited literature existing on the indications, complications and diagnostic yield thereof. The aim of the study is to analyse the indications, diagnostic yield, safety and complications of percutaneous transjugular renal biopsies in our site over the last 15 years. MATERIAL AND METHODS Retrospective descriptive study of all transjugular renal biopsies performed in our site, the Hospital Vall d'Hebron, between 2003 and 2018. For this, an exhaustive review of the clinical records of patients subjected to this procedure during the study period was conducted. RESULTS 56 TRBs were performed during the study period. Out of the patients, 31 were men (55.4%) and 25 were women (44.6%), with a median age of 62 years (IQ range 25-75 [52.5-69.5]). More than half presented with haematuria at the time of biopsy, with a median creatinine of 2.69 mg/dL (IQ 25-75 [1.7-4.3]) and median proteinuria at 24 hours of 2000 mg (IQ 25-75 [0.41-4.77]).The mean systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) were 140 +/- 26 mmHg and 75 +/- 15 mmHg, respectively. The biopsy was carried out owing to acute kidney failure in 19 patients, chronic kidney disease in 12 patients and nephrotic syndrome in 10 patients; in 15 patients it was carried out for other reasons. The most frequent TRB indication was technical impossibility in 16 of 56 cases (including infracostal kidneys, obesity and COPD), alterations in haemostasis (n = 6), thrombocytopenia (n = 5) and solitary kidney (n = 7). 12.5% of the biopsies were hepato-renal. Histological diagnoses were obtained in two thirds of the renal biopsies. The average number of cylinders obtained was 2.5 ± 1.3, with the average number of glomeruli being 6.6 ± 6.2. The most frequent histological diagnoses were IgA nephropathy, membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis and thrombotic microangiopathy. Three major complications were observed: fornix rupture and two transfusion requirements due to bleeding and subcapsular hematoma. CONCLUSIONS In our site, TRB allowed for a histological diagnosis in 2/3 of patients for whom percutaneous ultrasound renal biopsy is contraindicated. This allowed us to diagnose and subsequently treat said patients.

Risk Factors Associated with Major Complications after Ultrasound-Guided Percutaneous Renal Biopsy of Native Kidneys. Kidney Blood Press Res 2019; 45:122-130. [PMID: 31822004 DOI: 10.1159/000504544] [Citation(s) in RCA: 24] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/20/2019] [Accepted: 11/03/2019] [Indexed: 11/19/2022] Open
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Percutaneous renal biopsy (PRB) of native kidneys is an important tool for diagnosis and management of renal disease. In this study, we analyzed the success, safety, and risk complications of PRB in our center. METHODS A retrospective review of ultrasound-guided PRB done at our institution from January 1998 to December 2017 was performed. Clinical and laboratory data were collected for 661 PRBs. Statistical analysis was performed using the Mann-Whitney U test for continuous variable and chi-square test for categorical variables. Multivariate analysis using logistic regression was performed to assess factors associated with increased risk of complications after PRB. RESULTS The median age was 56 (42-68) years old, the majority were male (64%) and white (82%). Ten glomeruli were present in 63.5% of PRBs. Overall, the rate of complications was 16.6%, where 15.1% of them were minor complications and 1.5% were major complications. Perinephritic hematoma accounted for the minor complication that occurred most frequently, whereas the need of a blood transfusion was the prevalent for major complications. By multivariate analysis, increased activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT; OR 1.11, 95% CI 1.035-1.180) and prebiopsy lower hemoglobin (Hgb; OR 1.61, 95% CI 1.086-2.304) were identified as independent risk factors for major complications. In addition, older patients (OR 1.057, 95% CI 1.001-1.117) were identified as an independent risk factor for blood transfusion requirement. CONCLUSION The current risk of complications after native PRB is low. Major complications are most common in case of increased aPTT and decreased Hgb baseline level.
