Abstract
Thrombosis is one of the important complications in nephrotic syndrome. Hypercoagulability is known as the principal contributing factor in the pathophysiologic mechanism, but the precise mechanism is not clear yet. Venous thrombosis is frequently encountered, but arteri- al thrombosis is a relatively rare complication and has been reported mainly in nephrotic children. We are reporting a adult nephroitic patint who devel- oped thrombosis of posterior cerebral artery. Histology of the kidney showed focal glomerulosclerosis. The patient improved with steroid therapy along with anti- platelet drug.
