A kidney biopsy is a diagnostic procedure performed to obtain a small sample of kidney tissue for examination under a microscope. This procedure is typically recommended when a patient presents with abnormal kidney function, blood or protein found in the urine sample. A kidney biopsy helps nephrologists and pathologists in correctly diagnosing the cause of kidney abnormalities and determine the most appropriate treatment plan.
Kidney biopsy is done by accessing the kidney through the lower back. Local anesthesia is applied to numb the skin. Biopsy needle is inserted through the skin and into the kidney using Ultrasound or CT Scan guidance. A small tissue is extracted from the kidney and the needle is withdrawn. The procedure is performed under sterile conditions to minimize the risk of infection and complications.
Nephrologists or Interventional Radiologists are performing kidney biopsy at all of our centres. The tissue sample is then tested at our NABL accredited laboratory to identify kidney conditions like inflammation, infection, autoimmune disorders or any other kind of kidney damage.

The total cost of kidney biopsy test will be Rs. 6250.
The cost of kidney disease treatment depends on the severity of the disease. At an early stage, the treatment is done through medications which is not very expensive. However if the kidney damage is severe then the cost of treatment becomes significant.
