Overview
A biopsy may be helpful in the diagnosis of bladder cancer. Transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT) is a procedure for the resection of bladder cancer that also provides a sample for biopsy. Kidney biopsy may be helpful in the diagnosis of glomeruler diseases and it might be required in the presence of dysmorphic red blood cells or red blood cell casts.
