WCN26-9257 ENHANCING KIDNEY DISEASE DIAGNOSIS THROUGH BIOPSY: HISTOPATHOLOGICAL PATTERNS OF KIDNEY BIOPSIES PERFORMED IN RWANDA OVER THE PAST 4.5 YEARS

2026Open accessUniversity of Kigali

Abstract

Kidney biopsy provides essential information about the underlying pathology of both native and transplanted kidneys, allowing for accurate diagnosis and targeted management before progression to kidney failure. Despite its diagnostic value, kidney biopsy remains underutilized in many resource-limited settings due to technical, logistical, and human resource constraints.
