[Arterial thrombosis in the nephrotic syndrome].
It is not common knowledge that, besides venous thrombosis, arterial thrombotic events may also be associated with the nephrotic syndrome. Two patients are reported who were admitted because of thrombotic occlusions in the peripheral arteries and developed nephrotic syndrome due to membranous glomerulonephritis after various lapses of time. These two cases and the literature support the hypothesis that an identical pathogenetic mechanism may be responsible for the arterial thrombosis as well as the glomerular lesions.
