Biopsy Kidney with Special Stains and Cost
Biopsy is a medical procedure that involves the removal of tissue samples from a patient’s body for examination under a microscope. A biopsy of the kidney involves the removal of a small piece of tissue from the kidney for examination. It is a common diagnostic test used to determine the cause of kidney disease.
Special Stains in Kidney Biopsy
Special stains are used in kidney biopsies to help identify specific types of kidney diseases. These stains are used to highlight specific structures within the kidney tissue, making it easier for pathologists to identify abnormal cells or structures. Some of the special stains commonly used in kidney biopsies include:
- PAS stain – highlights structures made of complex carbohydrates, such as basement membranes
- Trichrome stain – highlights collagen and other connective tissue fibers
- Immunofluorescence stain – highlights specific proteins within the kidney tissue
Using special stains in kidney biopsies can help doctors diagnose a wide range of kidney diseases, including glomerulonephritis, interstitial nephritis, and lupus nephritis.
Symptoms of Kidney Disease
Kidney disease can cause a wide range of symptoms, including:
- Fatigue
- Swelling in the feet and ankles
- Shortness of breath
- High blood pressure
- Blood in the urine
- Protein in the urine
- Decreased urine output
If you are experiencing any of these symptoms, it is important to see a doctor for an evaluation. Kidney disease can be serious and can lead to kidney failure if left untreated.
Diagnosing Kidney Disease
Diagnosing kidney disease typically involves a combination of medical history, physical examination, and laboratory tests. A kidney biopsy may be recommended if other diagnostic tests do not provide a clear diagnosis. A kidney biopsy can help identify the cause of kidney disease and guide treatment decisions.
