WCN26-5479 INSIGHTS FROM RENAL BIOPSY DATA REGISTRY IN AFRICA AND MIDDLE EAST: A SINGLE-CENTER EXPERIENCE

2026Open accessMansoura University

Abstract

Renal biopsy remains the gold standard for diagnosing kidney diseases, particularly glomerular disorders. Histopathological examination provides critical insights into disease pathogenesis, assessment of activity and chronicity, clinical decision-making, and prognostic evaluation. Data registries are essential tools for understanding the epidemiology, clinical features, and outcomes of renal disorders, thereby improving clinical practice and informing health policy. However, comprehensive renal biopsy registries are currently lacking in Africa and Middle East.
