Renal Vein Thrombosis

Renal Vein Thrombosis is usually of insidious onset, occurring in the nephrotic syndrome, with a renal cell carcinoma, and in conditions associated with an increased risk of venous thrombosis (e.g. antithrombin deficiency or the presence of anticardiolipin antibodies).

Cause of Renal Vein Thrombosis

There are various causes of Renal Vein Thrombosis. Some of them are abdominal operation, dehydration, renal disease, reduction in renal blood flow, pregnancy, constrictive pericarditis, morbid obesity.

Treatment of Renal Vein Thrombosis

One of the major goals of treatment is to prevent the blood clot in the renal vein from detaching and moving into the lungs. The enzyme streptokinase may be given to help dissolve the renal clot. Anticoagulant medications are usually prescribed to prevent clots from recurring. Anticonvulsants may be given to prevent formation of new clots. Bedrest or limited activity may be recommended for a brief period.

Renal vein thrombosis usually resolves over time without permanent injury to the kidneys.
