Lefaucheur C et al. – The use of the PFA–100 may replace the bleeding time and is now considered as a more valuable screening test for prebiopsy identification and management of patients with impaired haemostasis. Four groups of patients benefit from the findings of renal biopsy: those with a nephrotic syndrome, those with a renal disease in a context of systemic disorder, those with acute renal failure and those with a renal transplant. Some patients with non–nephrotic proteinuria, hematuria and chronic renal failure may also benefit from the procedure.
