Abstract
|
|
|
|
Most patients with nephrotic syndrome visit the hospital because of edema due to hypoalbuminemia induced by severe proteinuria. However, rare cases have reported arterial thrombosis as the main problem complicating nephrotic syndrome. Arterial thrombosis combined with nephrotic syndrome is rarer than venous thrombosis, and it usually develops during treatment with steroids or diuretics. Arterial thrombosis is rarely diagnosed as the initial sign of nephrotic syndrome. We report the case of a 38-year-old-woman with membranous glomerulonephritis presenting with right common iliac artery thrombosis as the initial sign.
