                            <p>Ön Bilgi 1951’den beri uygulanan perkütan iğne biyopsisi, böbrek hastalıkları tanısında devrim yarattı. Çoğu merkezde benzer histolojik dağılımlar bildirilirken Ankara serimiz beklenmedik yüksek amiloidoz oranı gösterdi.Yöntem 1963–1966, 1969, 1971–1972 arası 419 hastaya (256 erkek, 163 kadın; yaş 4–65) ve 92 dış merkez vakasına yapılan toplam 471 biyopsi geriye dönük incelendi. Necker veya Vim-Silverman iğnesi ile alınan dokular parafin bloklarına gömülüp H&amp;amp;E, PAS, kongo kırmızısı ile boyandı.Bulgular Biyopsilerin %95,8’inde yeterli doku elde edildi. 394 olguda tanı konuldu: 126 (%32,0) amiloidoz, 109 (%27,6) kronik glomerülonefrit, 46 (%11,6) membranöz GN, 24 (%6,0) subakut GN, 22 (%5,5) akut GN, 12 (%3,0) kronik pyelonefrit, 11 (%2,8) SLE nefriti ve diğer patolojiler.Sonuç Ankara’daki yüksek amiloidoz insidansı, endemik yatkınlık faktörlerinin rolünü vurgular. Perkütan biyopsi güvenli bir yöntem olup makroskobik kanama oranı %4, cerrahi komplikasyon görülmedi.</p></trans-abstract>

Most centers report similar histologic distributions, but our Ankara series revealed an unexpectedly high rate of renal amyloidosis.Methods We retrospectively reviewed 471 percutaneous renal biopsies performed on 419 patients (256 men, 163 women; age 4–65) at Ankara University in 1963–1966, 1969, and 1971–1972, plus 92 outside cases. Biopsies used Necker or Vim-Silverman needles. Specimens were fixed, paraffin-embedded, and stained (H&amp;amp;E, PAS, Congo red, etc.).Results Adequate tissue was obtained in 95.8% of attempts. Of 394 diagnostic biopsies, 126 (32.0%) showed amyloidosis—a far higher proportion than reported elsewhere—109 (27.6%) chronic glomerulonephritis, 46 (11.6%) membranous GN, 24 (6.0%) subacute GN, 22 (5.5%) acute GN, 12 (3.0%) chronic pyelonephritis, 11 (2.8%) SLE nephritis, and various other pathologies.Conclusion The high amyloidosis rate in our Turkish cohort underlines the need for biopsy confirmation in regions where endemic factors—such as FMF—predispose to renal amyloid. Percutaneous biopsy is safe, with a 4% macroscopic bleeding rate and no surgical complications.</p></abstract>
