| Popis: | Four percutaneous renal biopsies with intravascular embolic tubular epithelial cells are presented. This unusual finding is presumably the result of the needle biopsy procedure and can be a puzzling and misleading artifact. It is postulated that dislodged tubular epithelial cells are pushed forward into or pulled back into punctured intrarenal arteries and subsequently transported to distant glomeruli. |
