To evaluate the frequency of retroperitoneal hemorrhage related to renal biopsy, we prospectively assessed 182 patients (200 biopsies) using state-of-the-art CT and ultrasound. Our study revealed definite CT evidence of hemorrhage after 90.9% of biopsies. In a blinded analysis of images obtained in biopsied patients and in unbiopsied control patients the overall accuracy of CT was 93.8 versus 76.4% for ultrasound. Our data suggest that detectable hemorrhage is virtually always seen after renal biopsy and its frequency is much higher than noted in earlier studies.
