Risk Factors Associated with Major Complications after Ultrasound-Guided Percutaneous Renal Biopsy of Native Kidneys

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 instit...

description 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.
