How do you decide when a kidney biopsy is still needed?

I see patients where the clinical picture and serology already point strongly to a diagnosis, yet the biopsy would confirm it and guide treatment.

I'm never fully sure when the risk of the procedure is worth the extra certainty.

How do you decide when a biopsy adds enough to justify it, and when do you skip it?
