Current interest in this entity has been reflected by an increasing number of case reports in the last several years.1-9This interest is stimulated by the associated nephrotic syndrome occurring in cases of renal vein thrombosis. The mechanism for the development of renal vein thrombi is poorly understood, as is the genesis of the nephrotic syndrome. In infants, acute renal vein thrombosis associated with diarrhea and dehydration is a relatively common occurrence. The rapid clinical course is associated with...Bibliography1.
