Clinical Practice Session

Renal Biopsy: Clinical Correlations 2020

October 24, 2020 | 10:30 AM - 12:30 PM

Location: Live-Streamed

Session Description

This session includes complex renal biopsy cases presented by renal pathologists in a mini clinicopathologic conference with a nephrologist as the clinical discussant. Case histories and biopsy images appear on the ASN website prior to the meeting for review. A syllabus with the diagnoses, additional images, and discussion of the disease entities is provided by each pathologist for their individual case.

ASN thanks the Renal Pathology Society for assistance with this session.

Learning Objective(s)

• Assess histopathologic findings in kidney biopsies
• Describe the differential diagnoses of various entities presenting with similar histopathologic findings
• Summarize the nephrologist's perspective on the significance of renal biopsy findings
