Özet: The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical and pathological evaluation of renal biopsies performed between January 2015 and December 2019. In this study, renal biopsy data of 64 patients who were performed in the Internal Medicine Clinic of Kanuni Sultan Suleyman Training and Research Hospital between January 2015 and December 2019 were analyzed retrospectively. All renal biopsies were performed under ultrasonography guidance and all were native kidney biopsies. Demographic, clinical and laboratory data of the patients were obtained from hospital records. The study group consisted of 26 (41.2%) males and 38 (58.8%) females with a mean age of 44.41 ± 8.55 years. In the study, nephrotic proteinuria and hematuria were the most common biopsy indications (65.1%). Biopsy revealed the most common focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) (29.7%) and followed membranous glomerulonephritis (MGN) (20.4%). In conclusion, the most common indication for biopsy was nephrotic proteinuria and hematuria. It was noteworthy that the most common pathology detected by biopsy was FSGS.
