Abstract
This study is aim to analyze pathological characteristics of kidneys in cirrhotic patients with renal disease. Fifty-six cirrhotic patients with various renal diseases at Peking University First Hospital who underwent percutaneous renal biopsy from January 2010 to September 2019 were evaluated retrospectively. Immunoglobulin A nephropathy (IgAN) was the most common type of kidney biopsy (23 cases, 41.1%). Different pathologic types were often overlapping. More than 60% patients were treated with steroids and/or immunosuppressants, and 1 patient with anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody. Percutaneous renal biopsy is important for the diagnosis and treatment in cirrhotic patients with renal disease.
